Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows PowerShell 5.1, with all examples and instructions assuming a Windows environment. There is no mention of Linux/macOS equivalents, nor any examples or guidance for non-Windows platforms. The use of Windows-specific terminology and tools (PowerShell, MOF files, DSC) is pervasive, and Linux is only referenced in a link about onboarding, not in the main workflow or examples.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions and examples for Linux/macOS users, including how to use DSC with cross-platform PowerShell.
  • Clarify which steps are Windows-only and provide alternatives or workarounds for Linux/macOS environments.
  • Include references to Linux-compatible DSC resources and modules, and document any platform-specific limitations.
  • Present examples for both Windows and Linux platforms side-by-side, or clearly indicate platform applicability for each step.
