Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by focusing heavily on PowerShell DSC, referencing Windows tools and patterns first, and providing detailed Windows OS/version support lists before Linux. Examples and references (such as Chocolatey and PowerShell cmdlets) are Windows-centric, and there are no Linux-specific usage examples or equivalent Linux tooling highlighted.
Recommendations:
- Provide Linux-specific examples for onboarding, configuration, and troubleshooting, including sample commands and scripts.
- List supported Linux distributions and versions explicitly, similar to the Windows OS list.
- Highlight Linux-native configuration management tools or patterns where relevant, or clarify how PowerShell DSC for Linux integrates with typical Linux workflows.
- Include Linux-focused continuous deployment pipeline examples (e.g., using apt, yum, or native package managers instead of Chocolatey).
- Balance the order of presentation so that Linux and Windows are given equal prominence in prerequisites, examples, and feature descriptions.
- Reference Linux command-line tools and scripting (e.g., Bash) where appropriate, alongside PowerShell.
