Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. It assumes the client accessing the Azure Stack Edge device is Windows, requires Windows PowerShell for key steps, and provides only PowerShell-based examples and commands. Linux or macOS alternatives are not described, and Windows tooling is referenced exclusively or before any mention of other platforms. The instructions and screenshots are tailored to Windows environments, and there is no parity in guidance for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent instructions and examples for Linux and macOS clients, including shell commands (bash/zsh) and usage of Azure CLI outside PowerShell.
  • Explicitly state which steps are platform-agnostic and which require platform-specific tools, offering alternatives where possible.
  • Include screenshots and walkthroughs for Linux environments, such as using terminal and Azure CLI on Ubuntu or other distributions.
  • Clarify whether device-side PowerShell interfaces can be accessed from non-Windows clients, and if so, provide guidance.
  • Update prerequisites to treat Windows, Linux, and macOS clients equally, listing supported OSes and their respective setup steps.
  • Where PowerShell cmdlets are used, offer bash/CLI equivalents or note if functionality is unavailable on Linux.
