Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias in several ways: Windows is presented as the default development environment, with references to Windows-specific features (e.g., Docker Desktop for Windows, nested virtualization, Windows paths in examples), and Windows installation instructions are listed before Linux/macOS equivalents. There is frequent mention of PowerShell, command prompt, and Windows environment variable patterns, while Linux-specific instructions (e.g., for Docker, environment variables, and file paths) are less emphasized or only mentioned as alternatives. The tutorial uses Windows-centric terminology and examples, and Linux equivalents are sometimes missing or only referenced in passing.
Recommendations
- Present Linux and macOS instructions and examples alongside Windows, not after or as alternatives.
- Use cross-platform file paths (e.g., ~/dev/iotedgesolution or /home/user/dev/iotedgesolution) in examples, or provide both Windows and Linux/macOS versions.
- Include explicit Linux/macOS command-line examples for all steps, especially for environment variable setup, Docker installation, and directory creation.
- Avoid Windows-centric terminology (e.g., 'command prompt', '%APPDATA%') without providing Linux equivalents (e.g., 'terminal', '~/.local/bin').
- Highlight Linux as a first-class development environment, not just as the target device OS.
- Add troubleshooting steps specific to Linux/macOS environments.
- Ensure that all language-specific instructions (C#, C, Java, Node.js, Python) include Linux/macOS details where relevant.
