Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows environments and tooling, specifically Hyper-V and Windows VMs, with all deployment scenarios and configuration steps described exclusively for Windows hosts. There are no examples or guidance for deploying Azure IoT Edge for Linux on Windows using Linux hosts, nor are Linux virtualization tools (such as KVM or VirtualBox) mentioned. All instructions and references are Windows-centric, which may leave Linux/macOS users without clear guidance.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent deployment instructions for Linux hosts using KVM, VirtualBox, or other common Linux virtualization platforms.
  • Include examples and configuration steps for setting up nested virtualization on Linux VMs.
  • Mention Linux/macOS compatibility and any limitations or requirements for those platforms.
  • Provide parity in troubleshooting notes and networking configuration for Linux-based virtualization.
  • Clarify whether EFLOW is strictly Windows-host-only, and if so, state this explicitly at the start.
