How to build a solution like docs.microsoft.com
They seem to have an internal system that is triggered by commits on the main branch on those repositories that contain docs. For example, if you look at https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/PowerShell-Docs, and click on the commit checks for the latest main commit (green checkmark next to the commit), there is one check "OpenPublishing.Build" that leads to the report of where the files were uploaded: https://opbuilduserstoragepublic.blob.core.windows.net/report/2022%5C5%5C5%5C6ff7e8c3-dfc6-3ebd-da5a-d5e2ff43de8f%5CPullRequest%5C202205052157488348-8793%5Cworkflow_report.html?sv=2021-04-10&se=2022-06-05T21%3A59%3A48Z&sr=b&sp=r&sig=VsulIs3Vw8QappOaWIin6%2FqLJN5M99%2FATZiOWFF3k0U%3D

How to download/save multiple pages from a docs.microsoft.com site for educational purposes?
Yes on the main page -- Click on the Green Code Button, then click Download Zip. It will work better if you have a copy of the GitHub desktop client, but its not technically necessary.
-
Support just requested an IP address for an oven
Sorry to break it to you, but Preheat is not an approved Powershell verb :(
-
A quick explanation, please?
This issue explains the reason. Get-Service was using DCOM, which has been removed.

Boxstarter
Boxstarter automates the installation of software to create repeatable, scripted Windows environments. Builds on Chocolatey to create an optimized way to install a complete environment on a fresh OS install. RjBass3 uses it "to install a plethora of basic apps and software like Adobe Reader, various browsers, dotnet etc.. And the ability to keep them updated, so I'm not always getting calls about 'is this notification for an update safe?'… saves so much time and effort."

Is there any way to run Chocolately without actually installing it?
Take a look at Boxstarter that uses Chocolatey CLI to do this. It's built for this exact purpose.
