Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. All image requirements and examples are exclusively for Windows OS (Windows 10/11 Enterprise), with no mention of Linux or macOS compatibility. All tooling and command-line instructions (e.g., Sysprep, DISM, PowerShell, defrag, chkdsk) are Windows-specific, and there are no Linux equivalents or alternative instructions. The examples and screenshots are Windows-centric, and the workflow assumes a Windows environment throughout.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state whether Linux images are supported or not for Dev Box. If not, clarify the scope early in the documentation.
  • If Linux images are supported, provide equivalent instructions for creating, generalizing, and optimizing Linux VM images (e.g., using waagent, cloud-init, relevant disk cleanup commands).
  • Include Linux Marketplace image examples if applicable.
  • Add parity for command-line instructions, such as Azure CLI or Bash scripts, for Linux users.
  • Mention any limitations or differences for Linux/macOS users in the prerequisites and requirements sections.
