Summary
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific tools and patterns (Group Policy, WSUS, Microsoft Update) are mentioned before or in more detail than their Linux equivalents. PowerShell is referenced for extension management and onboarding, with no equivalent Linux shell examples. Some onboarding methods are described as Windows-only, and links to Windows-specific guidance are provided, while Linux automation tools (e.g., Ansible) are only briefly mentioned. Linux update mechanisms are covered, but with less detail and fewer actionable examples.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux shell (bash) examples alongside PowerShell for onboarding and extension management tasks.
- Include links to Linux-specific onboarding and automation guidance, similar to the Group Policy onboarding link for Windows.
- Expand coverage of Linux automation tools (e.g., Ansible, Chef, Puppet) with concrete examples for protecting secrets and orchestrating onboarding.
- Present update management instructions for Linux (e.g., using apt/yum/zypper) with step-by-step guidance, not just a brief mention.
- Ensure that Linux tools and patterns are described with equal detail and prominence as Windows tools.
- Where features are Windows-only (e.g., interactive logon via local browser), clearly state Linux alternatives or workarounds.
