Windows registry keys are easier to configure using Group Policy templates rather than directly, especially with products like Intune that can only set registry keys through scripts or templates.

I've included a PowerShell script to generate the ADMX/ADML files from configuration.md, so they can be regenerated as the doc changes. This approach is used by large projects like browsers and vscode, but the files could be updated manually instead if you think the script is too brittle.

Example of generated UX in the local Group Policy editor:
