Summary
The documentation for Microsoft Dev Box deployment is heavily oriented toward Windows environments. It references Windows-specific management tools (Intune, Endpoint Privilege Management), Windows device configuration, and examples involving Windows-centric package managers (WinGet, Chocolatey) and PowerShell scripts. There is no mention of Linux VM images, Linux device management, or Linux-specific customization/catalog options. All device management, access control, and troubleshooting guidance is framed in terms of Windows tools and patterns, with no Linux parity or examples.
Recommendations
- Add explicit guidance and examples for deploying and managing Linux-based dev boxes, including supported Linux distributions and configuration steps.
- Include Linux equivalents for customization tasks, such as using apt, yum, or other package managers, and shell scripts instead of only PowerShell/WinGet/Chocolatey.
- Document how device management, compliance, and access control can be handled for Linux dev boxes, including any Intune or alternative tooling support.
- Provide troubleshooting and monitoring instructions relevant to Linux dev boxes (e.g., log locations, remote access methods, OS-specific health checks).
- Ensure that examples and patterns are presented in a cross-platform manner, or at least alternate between Windows and Linux, rather than Windows-first.
