Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively using Visual Studio (a Windows-centric IDE) for all development steps, recommending Data Lake Tools for Visual Studio and Azure PowerShell for file upload and job submission, and providing step-by-step instructions only for these Windows tools. Linux alternatives (such as using Mono directly, building with `msbuild`, or uploading files via SCP/SFTP) are not mentioned, and the only Linux-specific step is the SSH connection for running Pig jobs. There are no examples of building or deploying from Linux environments, nor are cross-platform CLI workflows described.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions for building C# projects using cross-platform tools such as `dotnet` CLI or `msbuild` on Linux/macOS.
  • Provide examples for uploading files to HDInsight storage using Linux-native tools (e.g., `azcopy`, `az storage blob upload`, `scp`, or `sftp`).
  • Include steps for running Hive queries using Azure CLI or REST API, rather than only through Visual Studio.
  • Mention and demonstrate the use of cross-platform editors (e.g., Visual Studio Code) and workflows.
  • Clarify which steps are Windows-specific and provide Linux/macOS equivalents where possible.
