Summary
The documentation is generally cross-platform, with most examples using 'bash' and 'iotedge' CLI commands that are applicable to both Linux and Windows. However, there are several instances where Windows-specific (cmd) syntax is used or presented first, such as for 'iotedge logs', 'docker rm', and 'iotedge restart'. There are no explicit PowerShell examples, but the use of 'cmd' blocks and lack of explicit Linux alternatives in some sections may confuse Linux users. Additionally, some commands (like 'docker rm') are shown only in Windows cmd syntax, and the documentation does not clarify platform differences where they may exist.
Recommendations
- For every 'cmd' example, provide a corresponding 'bash' example or clarify that the command is identical on both platforms.
- When presenting commands, avoid using 'cmd' blocks unless there is a Windows-specific syntax difference; otherwise, use 'bash' or a neutral code block.
- If there are platform-specific behaviors or prerequisites (such as service names, log file locations, or command syntax), explicitly document them for both Windows and Linux.
- Consider adding a section at the top clarifying that all commands are cross-platform unless otherwise noted, and specify any exceptions.
- Where tools or commands are platform-specific (e.g., service management), provide both Windows and Linux instructions.
