Microsoft's open-source documentation repository for Hyper-V virtualization and Windows containers, published to Microsoft Learn. It contains docs, code samples, demo scripts, and automation tools for working with VMs and containers on Windows.
Use cases
- learn how to install and use Hyper-V on Windows
- find PowerShell scripts to automate Hyper-V management
- get started with Windows containers
- contribute improvements to Microsoft virtualization docs
- find Hyper-V API and architecture references
- set up virtual machines on Windows Server
When to choose
- you need official, up-to-date guidance on Hyper-V or Windows containers
- you want sample scripts and walkthroughs for automating virtualization on Windows
- you want to contribute to or propose Microsoft virtualization documentation
When to avoid
- you need virtualization docs for Linux KVM, VMware, or VirtualBox
- you want runnable production software rather than documentation and samples
- you need vendor-neutral container orchestration guidance like Kubernetes internals
