This repository holds the configuration files for compiling the personal Windows provisioning packages I have created. These packages are for personal usage; however, they may be beneficial to others looking for examples, references, or more extensive documentation. The Microsoft provisioning documentation supplies a basis for understanding Windows provisioning, but there is more to discover.

I started this journey in December 2020, and since then, I have had many questions, completed lots of experiments, and still have more to understand. This repository acts as a living space for the continuation and maintenance of this journey.

This project has its own set of documentation housed in the docs directory. This documentation aims to consolidate and streamline information or commands that aid the users of this project. While I try my best to make meaningful contributions to the official Microsoft documentation, there might be some overlap and some things that aren't in the Microsoft Docs.

The predefined packages contained in this repository are built exclusively for Windows 11 x64 machines. However, the documentation and provisioning syntax are universal for all supported versions of Windows (ARM and x64), unless specified otherwise.

This repository tends to revolve around predefined provisioning packages defined in the packages directory. These are personal packages that I use for my personal devices. However, there are other important scripts and information held in this repository for you to reference and learn from. As an overview:

Each directory has a readme to explain its purpose in more detail.

• Install the Windows Imaging and Configuration Designer (ICD).
• Read the ICD command-line interface reference.

See Building Provisioning Packages.

Execute or double-click the ppkg file on a Windows device. For more information, see Apply a provisioning package.

The core goal of this project is to organize and provide Windows provisioning documentation and resources for me, students, IT administrators, and whomever it might benefit.
