ARM Python SDK for Azure IoT Edge
Make the Python SDK for creating IoT Edge Modules also available for ARM cpu's and Windows.
The vast selection of python libraries, and ARM devices with python support, makes it an ideal choice for rapid development of Edge Modules.

The Python SDK is going through a rewrite at the moment. Once that is complete it will be supported on both Linux and Windows. You can find a preview of the rewrite at – github.com/Azure/azure-iot-sdk-python-preview

Thanks for pointing it out! We are indeed updating this doc to reflect the support for ARM. Windows support is still lagging though, unfortunately.

That is great news!
I was referring to this tutorial:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/iot-edge/tutorial-python-module
That states that
"Python modules for Azure IoT Edge don't support Windows or ARM devices."
If this is no longer the case, I withdraw my request.

Hi there, the latest release (https://github.com/Azure/azure-iot-sdk-python/releases) contains support for Raspbian Stretch. As for Windows, this is a limitation on the C and Python SDK. Windows support has not GA on Edge, please stay tuned for Windows support.
