Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows, specifically on deploying Azure IoT Edge for Linux on Windows (EFLOW). All installation, configuration, and deployment steps are provided exclusively using Windows tools and PowerShell commands. There are no instructions or examples for setting up IoT Edge on native Linux devices, nor are Linux equivalents for installation or configuration provided. Linux commands only appear at the very end for module management after the Windows-based deployment is complete.
Recommendations
  • Add a parallel quickstart for native Linux IoT Edge devices, including prerequisites, installation, and configuration steps using Linux commands and tools.
  • Provide Linux shell (bash) equivalents for PowerShell commands where possible, especially for installation and provisioning.
  • Clearly indicate in the introduction that the guide is specific to Windows and link to Linux/macOS quickstarts if available.
  • Balance examples by showing both Windows and Linux workflows for common tasks, such as provisioning, deployment, and troubleshooting.
