Summary
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All code examples use Windows PowerShell DSC syntax and resources (such as WindowsFeature), and there are no Linux configuration examples. The only VM creation link is for Windows, and references to DSC documentation and resources are Windows-centric. Linux is only mentioned in passing, with no practical guidance or parity in examples.
Recommendations
- Provide parallel Linux examples, such as a sample DSC configuration using the nx or nxFile resource for Linux nodes.
- Include links to both Windows and Linux VM creation guides in the prerequisites.
- Reference both Windows and Linux DSC documentation in the overview and next steps.
- Clarify which features and steps apply to Linux, and note any differences or limitations.
- If Linux support is deprecated, make this explicit at the start and provide migration or alternative guidance for Linux users.
