Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias primarily through the use of Windows-style file paths (e.g., C:\temp\) in all code samples, and references to creating files in Windows directories. There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform examples for file paths or file creation, and the instructions assume a Windows filesystem layout. The mention of AzCopy as a recommended tool is neutral, but the sample XML file location is given only as C:\temp, reinforcing the Windows-first approach. No PowerShell examples are present, but Bash is used throughout, which is cross-platform; however, the path conventions and file references are Windows-centric.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel examples using Linux/macOS file paths (e.g., /tmp/, /home/user/) alongside Windows paths.
  • Explicitly state that Bash scripts and Azure CLI commands work on Linux/macOS and Windows, and clarify any platform-specific differences.
  • When referencing sample files (like blob-list.xml), include instructions for both Windows and Linux/macOS users on where to create and how to reference these files.
  • Use environment variables or platform-agnostic path construction in examples to avoid hardcoding Windows paths.
  • Mention that AzCopy is available on Linux/macOS and provide installation links for those platforms.
