Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias in several ways. SMB (Windows standard) is presented as the default share type, with NFS (Linux standard) mentioned secondarily. Instructions for SMB shares include details about creating local users and modifying permissions via File Explorer, a Windows tool, while NFS shares only mention IP address configuration and lack further Linux-specific guidance. There are no Linux command-line or tool examples, nor references to Linux file managers or permission management. The documentation assumes familiarity with Windows patterns and omits parity for Linux workflows.
Recommendations
- Present SMB and NFS options with equal prominence, avoiding defaulting to Windows-centric SMB.
- Include Linux-specific instructions for NFS shares, such as mounting NFS shares from Linux clients and managing permissions using Linux tools (e.g., chmod, chown).
- Provide examples of accessing shares from both Windows (File Explorer, net use) and Linux (mount, smbclient, nfs-utils).
- Reference Linux file managers (e.g., Nautilus, Dolphin) alongside Windows File Explorer.
- Add troubleshooting steps and permission management examples for Linux environments.
- Ensure all screenshots and step-by-step instructions are platform-neutral or include both Windows and Linux perspectives.
