Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. PowerShell is used as the primary scripting interface for both Windows and Linux examples, rather than showing native Linux shell commands. Windows-specific tools and patterns (e.g., 'cmdkey', 'net use', drive letters) are described in detail, and Windows troubleshooting steps and terminology often appear before or more prominently than their Linux equivalents. Native Linux mounting commands (e.g., 'mount -t cifs', 'mount -t nfs') are not shown, and the Linux experience is consistently presented through a Windows-centric lens.
Recommendations
- Provide native Linux shell (bash) command examples for mounting file systems, in addition to or instead of PowerShell, especially for manual mounting and troubleshooting.
- Balance the order of presentation so that Linux and Windows instructions/examples are given equal prominence, or alternate which comes first.
- Include Linux-native troubleshooting steps and commands (e.g., using 'mount', 'lsblk', 'dmesg', 'journalctl') alongside Windows tools.
- Where Windows-specific tools (like 'cmdkey', 'net use') are mentioned, provide the Linux equivalents (e.g., 'mount -t cifs', 'mount -t nfs', 'cifs-utils', 'nfs-common') with example commands.
- Clarify when PowerShell is being used on Linux, and consider whether bash or shell scripts would be more familiar to Linux users.
- Link to both Windows and Linux official mounting documentation with equal visibility in the 'Next steps' and throughout the page.
