Summary
The documentation is largely platform-neutral in its API focus, but there is a subtle Windows bias in the ordering and detail of configuration examples. Windows-specific configuration fields (such as 'windowsConfiguration', 'winRM', 'additionalUnattendContent', and 'certificateStoreName on Windows') are described first and in greater detail than their Linux equivalents. Linux configuration is present but less detailed and always follows Windows fields. Some fields (e.g., 'certificateStore') are labeled as Windows-only, with no Linux alternative or explanation.
Recommendations
- Present Linux and Windows configuration examples with equal detail and in parallel, rather than listing Windows first.
- Clarify which fields are Windows-only and provide Linux alternatives or explicitly state when a feature is not available for Linux.
- Expand Linux configuration documentation to match the depth provided for Windows (e.g., provide examples for customData, SSH options, and disk restore points).
- Add explicit notes or tables comparing Windows and Linux restore point behaviors and supported features.
