Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates some Windows bias by only mentioning or providing examples with Windows-centric tools (such as AzCopy and Azure Storage Explorer), and by omitting any explicit Linux command-line or cross-platform alternatives for storage migration. There are no CLI or scripting examples (e.g., Bash, Azure CLI, PowerShell) for Linux users, and the tools referenced are more familiar or accessible to Windows users. The documentation also refers to UI navigation steps in the Azure portal, which are platform-agnostic, but the lack of command-line parity is notable.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit Linux and cross-platform examples for copying storage data, such as using Azure CLI commands (az storage blob/file copy) or AzCopy examples with Bash.
- Mention that AzCopy is available cross-platform and provide sample commands for both Windows (cmd/PowerShell) and Linux (Bash).
- Include references to open-source or cross-platform tools for storage management, not just Azure Storage Explorer.
- Where possible, provide both portal (UI) and CLI (Azure CLI, Bicep, ARM templates) instructions side-by-side, so users on any OS can follow along.
- Clarify that all steps can be performed from any OS, and highlight any OS-specific prerequisites or differences.
