Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias by exclusively referencing PowerShell scripts and WinGet as the mechanisms for Dev Box customization tasks. There is no mention of Linux shell scripting, Bash, or Linux package managers. The examples, terminology, and tooling are all Windows-centric, and there are no Linux equivalents or cross-platform considerations provided.
Recommendations
- Include examples and instructions for using Bash scripts and Linux package managers (such as apt, yum, or zypper) in customization tasks.
- Clarify whether Dev Box supports Linux-based images and, if so, provide explicit guidance for customizing Linux dev boxes.
- Present both Windows (PowerShell/WinGet) and Linux (Bash/apt/yum) options side-by-side in documentation and examples.
- Avoid language that assumes PowerShell or WinGet are the only supported or recommended tools; instead, use cross-platform terminology where possible.
- Add a section or FAQ addressing cross-platform support and how to achieve parity between Windows and Linux developer environments.
