Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows environments, specifically guiding users through deploying Azure IoT Edge for Linux on Windows. All installation and configuration steps use PowerShell commands and Windows-specific tooling (Hyper-V, MSI installers, PowerShell execution policy). There are no equivalent instructions or examples for deploying directly to native Linux devices, and Linux commands only appear at the very end for module verification, not for setup or installation.
Recommendations
- Provide parallel instructions for setting up Azure IoT Edge on native Linux devices, including prerequisites, installation, and configuration steps using Linux tools and shell commands.
- Include Linux-first examples for installation (e.g., using apt, yum, or direct Docker installation) and configuration, not just verification.
- Mention Linux system requirements and supported distributions alongside Windows requirements.
- Avoid assuming the user is on Windows; offer clear sections for both Windows and Linux users, or link to Linux-specific quickstarts.
- Balance PowerShell and Bash examples throughout the documentation, especially for core setup steps.
- Reference Linux virtualization options (e.g., KVM, VirtualBox) if relevant, not just Hyper-V.
