Summary
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias: it exclusively uses Visual Studio (Windows-only) for development, relies on .NET SDK and C# examples, and instructs users to use Windows tools such as Notepad and SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS). There are no Linux or cross-platform alternatives mentioned for project setup, code execution, or database management. Package installation is shown via NuGet Package Manager Console (PowerShell-based), with no mention of dotnet CLI or other Linux-friendly methods. The next tutorial is explicitly a PowerShell guide, further reinforcing the Windows-centric approach.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions for setting up the project using cross-platform tools such as VS Code or JetBrains Rider, and include dotnet CLI commands for package management.
  • Provide equivalent code samples and setup steps for Linux/macOS environments, including terminal commands for file creation (e.g., using 'echo' or 'nano' instead of Notepad).
  • Mention and demonstrate database management using Azure Data Studio, which is cross-platform, instead of only SSMS.
  • Include guidance for running the tutorial on Linux/macOS, such as installing the .NET SDK and running the application from the terminal.
  • Reference cross-platform alternatives for Azure Storage Explorer (which is available for Linux/macOS) and clarify its availability.
  • Balance the order of tool mentions so that Windows and Linux options are presented together or Linux-first where appropriate.
  • Provide links to documentation for Linux/macOS setup and troubleshooting.
