Summary
The documentation provides both Linux and Windows instructions for configuring Azure IoT Edge devices behind a proxy, but Windows-specific examples (especially PowerShell commands and registry edits) are more detailed and appear before Linux equivalents in several sections. Windows tools and patterns (e.g., PowerShell, registry edits, Invoke-WebRequest) are emphasized, while Linux instructions are more generic and sometimes refer out to external documentation. Linux examples are present but less detailed, and Windows-specific options (like offline installation) are highlighted.
Recommendations
- Ensure Linux instructions are as detailed and explicit as Windows ones, with step-by-step commands and troubleshooting notes.
- Present Linux and Windows instructions in parallel or alternate order, rather than consistently listing Windows first.
- Include Linux-specific troubleshooting tips and examples for proxy credential handling, similar to the PowerShell credential examples for Windows.
- Expand on Linux offline installation options if available, or clarify parity.
- Reference Linux-native tools (e.g., curl, wget, environment variables) where appropriate, not just package manager configuration.
