Summary
The documentation is primarily focused on Linux, as indicated by the title and most examples. However, there is evidence of Windows bias: PowerShell instructions are provided alongside bash/Cloud Shell, and the use of the 'Deploy to Azure' button (which opens the Azure portal, a web interface often associated with Windows workflows) is mentioned before CLI instructions. Additionally, PowerShell instructions are given their own section, while Linux instructions are grouped with bash and Cloud Shell, suggesting a parity but also a prioritization of Windows tooling. No Linux-specific tools (e.g., native package managers, systemd details) are discussed, and the Azure portal workflow is presented as the main way to deploy modules, which may be more familiar to Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific instructions first, and clearly separate them from Windows/PowerShell instructions.
  • Include examples using native Linux tools (e.g., apt, yum, systemd) for IoT Edge runtime installation and management.
  • Offer CLI-only workflows for module deployment, not just Azure portal (web UI) instructions.
  • Clarify that PowerShell instructions are for Windows users, and ensure bash instructions are complete for Linux users.
  • Add troubleshooting steps and tips specific to Linux environments (e.g., SELinux, firewalld, journalctl).
