Summary
The documentation page provides YAML customization examples that consistently use Windows paths (e.g., C:\workspaces), references Windows base images, and demonstrates automation tasks using PowerShell and the Windows-specific winget package manager. There are no Linux/macOS equivalent examples, and Windows tools/patterns are presented exclusively. This creates friction for Linux/macOS users who may wish to use Dev Box customizations in non-Windows environments.
Recommendations
- Add parallel examples using Linux/macOS paths (e.g., /home/dev/workspaces) and base images, where supported.
- Provide sample tasks using bash or shell scripts instead of PowerShell, and use cross-platform package managers (e.g., apt, yum, brew) for installing CLI tools.
- Clarify which features are Windows-only and which are cross-platform, so users know when Linux/macOS is supported.
- If Dev Box customizations can be used with Linux images, include explicit Linux/macOS usage scenarios and YAML samples.
