Summary
The documentation page exhibits several Windows-centric biases. PowerShell is referenced as the primary management interface in multiple workarounds (Issues 10 and 16), with no equivalent Linux shell instructions. Windows tools such as 'robocopy' and file copy via Explorer are suggested for blob management (Issue 3), while Linux alternatives are not mentioned. In NFS examples (Issue 7), the mount command is shown in Windows syntax first, and Linux mount examples are missing. Overall, Linux/macOS users may find it harder to follow or adapt the instructions, especially for device management and troubleshooting.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux/macOS shell commands for all PowerShell-based instructions, especially for device management and IoT Edge troubleshooting.
  • Mention Linux-native tools (e.g., rsync, cp) alongside Windows tools like robocopy for file operations.
  • Include Linux mount command examples for NFS shares, and clarify any OS-specific requirements.
  • Ensure that all workarounds and examples are presented in both Windows and Linux/macOS contexts, or clearly state OS limitations.
