Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. The majority of policy definitions and examples are Windows-specific, with only a handful of Linux-related entries. The page consistently references PowerShell Desired State Configuration (DSC) modules and Windows tools, with little to no mention of Linux equivalents or cross-platform alternatives. Windows policies are listed first and dominate the table, while Linux entries are sparse and sometimes marked as 'Preview'. There is a lack of Linux-specific module references and practical examples for Linux guest configuration.
Recommendations
- Add more Linux-specific policy definitions and examples to achieve parity with Windows coverage.
- Include references to Linux configuration management tools (e.g., Ansible, Chef, native shell scripts) where applicable, not just PowerShell DSC.
- Provide Linux equivalents for each Windows-focused policy, or clearly indicate if a policy is not applicable to Linux.
- Ensure Linux policies are not relegated to 'Preview' status if Windows equivalents are GA.
- Document the modules and scripts used for Linux guest configuration in the 'Required DSC modules' column, similar to Windows.
- Consider reordering or grouping the table to present Windows and Linux policies side-by-side for easier comparison.
