Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas: Windows updates are highlighted as a key feature, PowerShell is the only interface mentioned for device configuration (e.g., configuring MetalLB, running IoT Edge commands, creating virtual switches), and Windows-specific tools and workflows (e.g., robocopy, Explorer, RDP, Windows VM Guest Agent, Get-Process, Restart-Service) are referenced without Linux equivalents. Several examples and workarounds are provided only for Windows environments, with little or no mention of Linux alternatives or parity.
Recommendations:
- Provide Linux/Unix command-line equivalents (e.g., Bash, SSH) for all PowerShell and Windows command examples, especially for device management and troubleshooting.
- When referencing tools like robocopy or Explorer, include Linux alternatives such as rsync, cp, or scp.
- For VM and network management, document how to perform equivalent actions from Linux clients (e.g., using SSH, Linux-based SQL tools, or Linux RDP clients).
- Clarify whether features and interfaces (such as remote support, certificate management, and custom script extensions) are accessible and manageable from Linux systems, and provide instructions if so.
- Where Windows updates or features are highlighted, note any Linux/firmware updates or security fixes relevant to non-Windows environments.
- Ensure that all device management and configuration steps include both Windows and Linux paths where possible, to support cross-platform administrators.
