Summary
The documentation page exhibits a notable Windows bias. It references Windows-specific tools (WinGet, PowerShell), and examples focus exclusively on Windows environments. There are no Linux/macOS equivalents or examples, and the customization workflow is described in terms of Windows tooling and patterns. Linux/macOS users are left without guidance for creating or applying customization files in non-Windows dev boxes.
Recommendations
- Add explicit instructions and examples for creating and applying customization files on Linux and macOS dev boxes.
- Include Linux/macOS-specific tools and workflows (e.g., apt, Homebrew, shell scripts) in sample customization files.
- Clarify whether the Dev Box platform supports non-Windows dev boxes and, if so, provide parity in documentation.
- Avoid assuming WinGet or PowerShell as the default; mention alternatives for other platforms.
- Present cross-platform examples side-by-side or indicate platform-specific steps clearly.
