M365DSC.CompositeResources

This module contains various Composite Resources for Microsoft365DSC, which can be used with Microsoft365DSC deployments. Each workload has its own Composite Resource. The module is generated based on a specific version of Microsoft365DSC and has to be used in combination with that version.

These Composite Resources are also used in the Microsoft365DSC whitepaper "Managing Microsoft 365 in true DevOps style with Microsoft365DSC and Azure DevOps".
