Summary
The documentation page exhibits mild Windows bias. The prerequisites and configuration sections mention the Azurite and Storage Emulator, both of which are historically Windows-centric tools, and the Storage Emulator is only available on Windows. Instructions for clearing storage data reference the Storage Emulator but do not mention Linux alternatives. There are no explicit Linux-specific examples or parity notes for Linux users. PowerShell is mentioned as an alternative to Azure CLI, but not prioritized. Portal-based instructions are platform-neutral, but the overall pattern assumes familiarity with Windows tools and does not address Linux-specific workflows or limitations.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention that Azurite is cross-platform and provide installation instructions for Linux and macOS.
  • Replace or supplement references to the Storage Emulator with Azurite, and clarify that Storage Emulator is Windows-only.
  • Add Linux-specific instructions or notes wherever Windows-only tools (like Storage Emulator) are referenced.
  • Provide parity examples for common Linux shell environments (e.g., Bash) where relevant.
  • Add troubleshooting notes for Linux users, especially around local development and storage emulation.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and recommend it as the default for command-line instructions.
