Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows, specifically on deploying Azure IoT Edge for Linux on Windows devices. All installation and configuration steps use PowerShell commands and Windows-specific tooling (e.g., Hyper-V, MSI installers), with no equivalent instructions for native Linux or macOS environments. Linux commands are only mentioned for post-deployment module management, and only after connecting via PowerShell to a Windows-hosted VM. There are no examples or guidance for setting up IoT Edge on a native Linux device.
Recommendations
- Provide parallel instructions for deploying Azure IoT Edge on native Linux devices (Ubuntu, CentOS, etc.), including prerequisites, installation, and configuration steps.
- Include Linux shell (bash) commands for installation, configuration, and troubleshooting alongside PowerShell examples.
- Mention Linux system requirements and supported distributions in the prerequisites section.
- Clarify which steps are Windows-only and offer alternatives for Linux/macOS users.
- Add links to Linux/macOS-specific guides where appropriate.
