Summary
The documentation demonstrates a clear Windows bias. The deployment instructions exclusively use a Windows 11 Enterprise VM, with no mention of Linux alternatives for hosting the simulation or edge infrastructure. Users are instructed to connect via RDP and use Windows-specific tools (Windows command prompt, WSL), and the base OS recommendation is Windows IoT Enterprise. There are no examples or guidance for deploying the solution natively on Linux VMs or using Linux tools directly. The workflow assumes familiarity with Windows environments and only introduces Linux tooling (WSL, bash) as a subsystem within Windows, not as a first-class platform.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel instructions for deploying the production line simulation and edge infrastructure on a Linux VM (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS), including native installation steps for Docker, K3s, and other required components.
  • Offer SSH-based access instructions for Linux VMs, rather than only RDP for Windows.
  • Include Linux-native command-line examples and troubleshooting tips, not just WSL within Windows.
  • Mention Linux as a supported base OS for the simulation and edge workloads, and discuss any differences or considerations.
  • Ensure that all scripts and tools used in the tutorial are cross-platform, or provide Linux-specific alternatives where necessary.
  • Highlight open-source and cross-platform tools before or alongside Windows-specific ones, to avoid the impression that Windows is required.
