Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows, with the Azure Storage Emulator only available for Windows and all instructions, examples, and tooling references (such as PowerShell, SQL Server Management Studio, and Windows-specific installation paths) being Windows-centric. Linux is only mentioned as an alternative platform for Azurite, but no Linux-specific examples, commands, or tooling are provided. The authentication and SAS generation examples use Azure PowerShell, with no mention of cross-platform CLI or SDK approaches.
Recommendations
- Add explicit Linux and macOS instructions for local Azure Storage development using Azurite, including installation, startup, and usage examples.
- Provide cross-platform examples for authentication and SAS generation, such as using Azure CLI, REST API, or SDKs in languages like Python or Node.js.
- Include guidance for using open-source or cross-platform database backends (if relevant for Azurite), and clarify differences in local development experience between Windows and Linux.
- Mention and demonstrate the use of cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, VS Code, Storage Explorer) for managing local storage resources.
- Ensure parity in documentation structure, giving equal prominence to Linux/macOS workflows and tools, not just referencing them as alternatives.
