Summary
The documentation page exhibits strong Windows bias. All installation instructions, prerequisites, and examples are exclusively for Windows environments. PowerShell is the only scripting language shown for automation and setup. Windows-specific tools (Microsoft Integration Runtime Configuration Manager, registry edits, NT SERVICE accounts, Windows Firewall) are referenced throughout, with no mention of Linux equivalents or cross-platform support. There are no examples or guidance for installing or running the self-hosted integration runtime on Linux or macOS, nor are alternative command-line tools or shell scripts provided.
Recommendations
- Clearly state platform support at the top of the documentation (e.g., 'Windows only' or 'Windows and Linux supported').
- If Linux/macOS are supported, provide installation instructions, prerequisites, and examples for those platforms (e.g., using .tar.gz installers, systemd services, bash scripts).
- Include Linux-specific configuration guidance (e.g., firewall setup with iptables/ufw, service management via systemd, environment variable configuration).
- Offer cross-platform automation examples (e.g., Bash, Python, Azure CLI) alongside PowerShell.
- Reference Linux equivalents for Windows tools (e.g., mention how to manage service accounts, configure proxies, and handle credentials on Linux).
- If only Windows is supported, make this explicit and suggest alternatives for Linux users (such as using Azure-hosted IR or other integration methods).
