Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows environments, with exclusive use of PowerShell scripts and WinGet (a Windows package manager) for task automation. There are no examples or mentions of Linux-compatible scripting (such as Bash or shell scripts), nor are cross-platform tools or patterns discussed. The documentation assumes a Windows-first approach, which may exclude or confuse users working in Linux or cross-platform scenarios.
Recommendations
  • Include examples of tasks using Bash or shell scripts alongside PowerShell, and clarify when each is appropriate.
  • Mention and provide examples for Linux-compatible package managers (e.g., apt, yum) and scripting environments.
  • Explicitly state the platform requirements and limitations for Dev Box customizations, and clarify if Linux-based Dev Boxes are supported.
  • If Dev Box is Windows-only, make this clear early in the documentation; if cross-platform support is planned or available, provide parity in examples and tooling.
  • Reference cross-platform tools (such as Git, Python, or Node.js) in examples, and show how to automate their installation/configuration on both Windows and Linux.
