Summary
The documentation page exhibits mild Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (such as Azure Storage Emulator) are mentioned, and instructions for local storage emulation explicitly reference Windows OS. The use of Azurite is described in the context of Windows, with no Linux-specific instructions or parity checks. The 'Ensure 64-bit architecture' section is labeled 'Windows only,' and Linux users are told to skip it, but no equivalent Linux validation steps are provided. Command-line examples use generic CLI commands, but there is a lack of explicit Linux shell or environment examples. Screenshots and portal instructions are platform-neutral, but overall, the documentation assumes a Windows-first perspective and omits Linux-specific guidance in several places.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions and examples for Linux users, especially for local storage emulation with Azurite (e.g., how to install and run Azurite on Linux).
  • Provide Linux-specific validation steps for 64-bit architecture, such as using 'uname -m' or checking the platform via Azure portal for Linux apps.
  • Include CLI examples using bash/zsh syntax where appropriate, and clarify any differences in environment setup between Windows and Linux.
  • Mention any Linux-specific caveats or troubleshooting tips, especially for local development and deployment.
  • Ensure that references to Windows-only tools (like Azure Storage Emulator) are balanced with Linux alternatives and guidance.
