Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows is frequently mentioned first when listing supported platforms and development environments. There are references to Windows-specific tools and patterns, such as IoT Edge for Linux on Windows (EFLOW), and examples include PowerShell output. Some instructions and examples are tailored to Windows users, and Linux-specific guidance is sometimes less prominent or missing. While Linux is supported and mentioned, parity in examples and tool usage could be improved.
Recommendations
  • Ensure all code snippets and command outputs are shown for both Windows (PowerShell/CMD) and Linux/macOS (bash) where relevant, especially for commands like 'docker ps' and file paths.
  • When listing supported platforms or development environments, alternate the order or explicitly state that all platforms are equally supported.
  • Provide Linux/macOS-specific troubleshooting tips and notes alongside Windows-specific ones, especially for Docker Desktop and remote debugging.
  • Avoid using Windows-specific screenshots or outputs exclusively; include Linux/macOS equivalents.
  • Where Windows-only tools or patterns are mentioned (e.g., EFLOW), provide equivalent Linux-native workflows or clearly state their scope.
  • Add explicit Linux/macOS setup and usage instructions for all major steps, including Docker, SSH, and Visual Studio Code extensions.
  • Review all sections for implicit assumptions of Windows usage (e.g., file paths, environment variables) and provide cross-platform alternatives.
