Summary
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias. Windows is listed first in prerequisites and emulator support, and the legacy Azure Storage Emulator is mentioned as Windows-only before Azurite (which is cross-platform). There are no Linux-specific troubleshooting or usage examples beyond installation, and Windows tools (.NET runtime, Storage Emulator) are referenced without Linux equivalents or parity in explanation.
Recommendations
  • Rotate the order of operating systems in prerequisites or present them in alphabetical order to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Provide Linux-specific troubleshooting steps and usage examples, such as common issues with snap installations or manual dependency resolution.
  • Expand on Azurite as the recommended emulator for all platforms, and clarify that the legacy Azure Storage Emulator is deprecated and Windows-only.
  • Mention .NET runtime requirements for Linux and macOS explicitly, including installation instructions or links.
  • Ensure parity in screenshots and UI instructions by including examples from Linux and macOS environments, not just Windows.
  • Add notes or sections for Linux-specific password manager integration and common desktop environment issues.
