Hardcoded data

Configuration data can be hardcoded inside DSC configuration files, but this is not optimal in most cases. You will mostly use this for static sets of information or to reduce redundant code, as shown in the following code snippet:

    configuration FooBar
    {
      $features = @('Web-Server', 'Web-Asp-Net45')
    
      Foreach($feature in $features){
        WindowsFeature "Install$($feature)"
        {
          Name = $feature
        }
      }
    }
