Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by focusing on PowerShell Desired State Configuration (PSDSC) and the GuestConfiguration PowerShell module, with no equivalent Linux-specific tooling or examples provided. The instructional video and module references are PowerShell-centric, and Linux support is mentioned only in terms of compatibility, not in terms of authoring or usage examples. There are no Linux command-line examples, nor is there guidance for Linux-native configuration authoring workflows.
Recommendations
- Include Linux-specific examples for authoring and validating machine configuration packages, using native Linux tools and workflows (e.g., Bash, shell scripts, or Ansible).
- Provide parity in documentation by offering step-by-step guides for Linux environments, not just PowerShell.
- Reference and link to Linux-native configuration management tools where appropriate, or clarify how PSDSC concepts map to Linux equivalents.
- Add video or written tutorials demonstrating the process on Linux systems, including Ubuntu and other supported distributions.
- Explicitly state any differences in authoring, testing, and deploying packages on Linux versus Windows.
