Summary
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias by exclusively using PowerShell cmdlets and Windows-centric management tools for all configuration and management steps. All code examples, instructions for device access, and VM management are provided only for PowerShell, with no Linux shell or cross-platform CLI equivalents. Even when mentioning Linux VHDs as possible VM images, the operational guidance and examples remain Windows/PowerShell specific. There is no mention of how to perform these tasks from a Linux or cross-platform environment, nor are Linux-native tools or workflows described.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent command-line instructions using Azure CLI and/or Bash shell where possible, especially for device management and VM operations.
  • Include examples for connecting to and managing the device from Linux or macOS systems, not just via PowerShell.
  • Document any required tools or prerequisites for Linux users (e.g., SSH, Azure CLI, Python scripts) and show how to use them for common tasks.
  • If certain operations are only possible via PowerShell, explicitly state this limitation and suggest workarounds or alternatives for Linux users.
  • Ensure that all code samples and screenshots are balanced between Windows and Linux environments, or clearly indicate when steps are OS-specific.
