Summary
The documentation page is heavily focused on Windows-centric tools and patterns, such as PowerShell scripts and WinGet, with no mention of Linux/macOS equivalents or cross-platform scripting options. All examples and instructions assume the use of PowerShell and Windows-specific package managers, and there are no references to Bash, shell scripts, or Linux-native tools. This creates friction for users who wish to customize Dev Box environments for Linux or macOS development.
Recommendations
  • Add examples and guidance for creating tasks using Bash or shell scripts, especially for Linux/macOS environments.
  • Mention and provide parity for Linux package managers (e.g., apt, yum, Homebrew) alongside WinGet.
  • Clarify whether Dev Box supports non-Windows images and, if so, provide documentation for customizing those environments.
  • Include cross-platform scripting recommendations and highlight any limitations or requirements for non-Windows customization.
  • Present examples for both Windows and Linux/macOS environments, or clearly indicate Windows-only sections.
