Improving Shell usability -DSCv3
summary
Claims a new DSC V3 prototype decoupled from PowerShell and able to supports Windows Linux and Mac with configs authored in JSON or YAML and an executable-driven resource model. Shows a dsc.exe/DCX prototype, resource.json manifests, command‑based get/set/test invocations, registry and OS info demos, group/parallel and assertion semantics, and a PowerShell group adapter. Work is partial: discovery and set/test are prototype-level, repo aims to open around June, not yet production ready.
