Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a bias towards Windows by focusing on PowerShell Desired State Configuration (DSC) and the GuestConfiguration PowerShell module, with no Linux-specific examples or equivalent tooling mentioned. The instructional video is PowerShell-centric, and while Linux support is acknowledged, practical Linux authoring/testing steps are missing. MacOS is explicitly unsupported.
Recommendations
- Add Linux-specific examples for authoring and validating machine configuration packages, using native Linux tools where possible.
- Include instructions or references for using DSC on Linux, such as with Open Management Infrastructure (OMI) or native shell scripting.
- Highlight any differences or additional steps required for Linux users in the authoring and testing process.
- Provide parity in documentation structure, ensuring Linux workflows are described alongside Windows/PowerShell ones.
- Consider linking to or embedding Linux-focused video tutorials.
