Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All installation instructions, screenshots, and operational details are centered around Windows environments. The gateway installer is described as running on 'local computer', but all references, examples, and service accounts are Windows-specific (e.g., Windows service, NT SERVICE\PBIEgwService). There are no Linux installation instructions, examples, or mentions of Linux service management. Automation is referenced only via PowerShell cmdlets, with no mention of Bash, shell scripts, or Linux-native tools. Troubleshooting and administration sections also assume a Windows environment.
Recommendations
- Add explicit instructions and examples for installing and running the gateway on supported Linux distributions, if available.
- Include Linux-specific service management details (e.g., systemd unit, service name, commands to start/stop/restart the gateway on Linux).
- Provide automation examples using Bash scripts or Linux CLI tools in addition to PowerShell.
- Clarify OS requirements and supported platforms early in the documentation, and link to platform-specific guides.
- If the gateway is not supported on Linux, state this clearly and provide alternative solutions or workarounds for Linux environments.
