Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias by specifically mentioning Windows (e.g., launching from the Start menu) when describing how to run Azure IoT explorer, while not providing equivalent details or examples for Linux users. There are no Linux-specific instructions or examples, and the only platform-specific launch method mentioned is for Windows.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit instructions for launching Azure IoT explorer on Linux (e.g., using AppImage, .deb, or .tar.gz, and how to run from terminal or create desktop shortcuts).
- Mention Linux alongside Windows when describing installation and launch procedures, ensuring parity in the level of detail.
- Include troubleshooting tips or known issues relevant to Linux users if applicable.
- Where platform-specific behavior is described, provide parallel guidance for both Windows and Linux users.
