Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas. Powershell is used exclusively in example commands for Azure Batch custom activities (e.g., for unzipping files), and Windows-specific tools and patterns (such as Fiddler and Windows zip behavior) are referenced without Linux alternatives. Troubleshooting steps and examples often mention or prioritize Windows tools and workflows, with no equivalent Linux commands or guidance provided.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux shell (bash) equivalents for Powershell commands, especially for tasks like unzipping files in Azure Batch custom activities.
  • Include troubleshooting steps using Linux-native tools (e.g., tcpdump, curl, wget) alongside Windows tools like Fiddler.
  • When referencing Windows-specific behaviors (such as zip compression algorithms), clarify how Linux systems behave and offer guidance for Linux users.
  • Ensure that examples and instructions are presented in a cross-platform manner, with both Windows and Linux options given equal prominence.
  • Review all code snippets and tool recommendations to add Linux alternatives where missing.
