Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias by exclusively referencing Azure Storage Explorer (a GUI tool with a primary focus on Windows) for uploading files and generating SAS tokens, and by linking to Storage Explorer instructions with a Windows-specific tab in the URL. There are no examples or instructions for performing these tasks using Linux-native tools (such as the Azure CLI, azcopy, or command-line methods). The rest of the guide uses Azure CLI, which is cross-platform, but the initial steps and tooling references favor Windows users.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent instructions for uploading files and generating SAS tokens using Azure CLI and/or azcopy, which are cross-platform and work on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
- Avoid linking to Storage Explorer documentation with a Windows-specific tab in the URL, or provide links/tabs for Linux and macOS as well.
- Explicitly mention that Storage Explorer is available on multiple platforms, and provide download links for all supported OSes.
- Where GUI tools are referenced, also provide command-line alternatives for Linux users.
- Add a section or callout for Linux/macOS users to ensure parity in the onboarding and setup experience.
