Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas. The certificate generation section provides only Windows-specific instructions (using Command Prompt and Powershell syntax), with no Linux or macOS equivalents. The sample code is C#/.NET-centric, referencing Visual Studio and NuGet, which are primarily Windows tools, and does not mention Linux development environments or alternative languages. There are no explicit Linux shell or OpenSSL examples for certificate creation, nor guidance for running the sample code on Linux.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux and macOS instructions for certificate generation, e.g., using OpenSSL or step CLI in Bash.
  • Provide Bash shell command examples alongside Powershell/Command Prompt instructions.
  • Include sample code and instructions for running MQTT clients in cross-platform languages (e.g., Python, Node.js) and editors (e.g., VS Code).
  • Mention Linux package managers (apt, yum, brew) for installing required tools.
  • Clarify that the Azure CLI and MQTT workflows are cross-platform, and provide parity in examples and tooling references.
