Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias by referencing Azure Storage Explorer with a direct link to Windows-specific instructions and not providing equivalent Linux tooling or instructions. The Storage Explorer SAS generation link includes a '?tabs=windows' parameter, and there are no examples or notes for Linux users regarding uploading files or generating SAS tokens. All command-line examples use Azure CLI, which is cross-platform, but the only GUI tool mentioned is Storage Explorer with a Windows focus. There is no mention of Linux-native tools (e.g., azcopy, Linux file managers) or parity in GUI instructions.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit instructions or links for Linux and macOS users on how to upload files and generate SAS tokens, either using Azure Storage Explorer (with appropriate tabs/sections for each OS) or alternative tools like azcopy.
- Remove or supplement the '?tabs=windows' parameter in documentation links to ensure cross-platform guidance is visible.
- Mention that Azure Storage Explorer is available on Windows, macOS, and Linux, and provide platform-specific instructions or clarify that the steps are similar across platforms.
- Consider including CLI-based alternatives (e.g., az storage blob upload, az storage blob generate-sas) for users who prefer or require command-line solutions, especially on Linux.
- Review all tool references to ensure Linux users are not left without clear, actionable steps.
