Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias primarily through exclusive references to Microsoft Excel for handling CSV report formatting issues, with no mention of Linux or cross-platform alternatives. All step-by-step instructions for downloading and viewing reports assume usage of the Azure portal and Excel, both of which are most commonly used on Windows. There are no examples or guidance for Linux users, such as using LibreOffice, OpenOffice, or command-line tools (e.g., awk, csvkit) to process CSV files. The documentation also presents Windows-centric tools and workflows first and exclusively, omitting Linux equivalents.
Recommendations
  • Include instructions for opening and processing CSV files using Linux tools such as LibreOffice Calc, OpenOffice, or command-line utilities like awk, sed, or csvkit.
  • Add examples for importing and formatting CSV files on Linux and macOS platforms.
  • Mention cross-platform alternatives to Microsoft Excel for users who do not use Windows.
  • Clarify that the Azure portal is accessible from any modern browser and is not limited to Windows.
  • Where possible, provide CLI-based workflows (e.g., using Azure CLI or PowerShell Core, which is cross-platform) for downloading and processing billing reports.
