## What it is
A Microsoft-maintained collection of sample shell scripts for managing macOS and Linux devices through Microsoft Intune. It provides educational examples covering app management, configuration, custom compliance, and custom attributes.

## Use cases
- manage macos devices with intune shell scripts
- deploy apps via intune on macos
- write custom compliance scripts for linux in intune
- configure macos devices with intune custom profiles
- learn intune shell scripting examples
- automate line-of-business app management in intune

## When to choose
- you administer macOS or Linux devices with Microsoft Intune and need ready-made script examples
- you want to learn how to use Intune shell scripts, custom attributes, or custom compliance settings
- you need a starting point to adapt for your own device management automation

## When to avoid
- you need production-ready, fully supported tooling rather than educational samples
- you manage only Windows devices, as this repo focuses on macOS and Linux
- you want a polished application or CLI product instead of example scripts
