Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. It references Windows-specific concepts (such as NT SERVICE accounts, Local System, Network Service) before their Linux equivalents, and describes guest configuration policies as being written in PowerShell Desired State Configuration without mentioning Linux alternatives. The example extension allowlist references only Windows agents, and there are no explicit Linux/macOS command or extension examples. The documentation also uses Windows terminology and patterns first, with Linux details as secondary notes.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit Linux/macOS examples alongside Windows ones, especially for extension allowlists and agent configuration.
- Mention Linux equivalents for guest configuration policies, such as Ansible or native Linux configuration management tools, if supported.
- Include Linux/macOS agent extension IDs in allowlist examples.
- Clarify whether PowerShell Desired State Configuration is required on Linux, or if there are alternative mechanisms.
- Balance terminology by listing Linux service accounts and patterns before or alongside Windows ones.
