Summary:
The documentation page lists several tools for working with Azure SQL Edge, with a notable emphasis on Windows-centric tools such as SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) and SQL Server Data Tools in Visual Studio, both of which are primarily Windows applications. While cross-platform tools like Azure Data Studio and Visual Studio Code are mentioned, the order of presentation places Windows-only tools before cross-platform alternatives, and there are no Linux-specific examples or guidance. This subtly prioritizes Windows environments and may give the impression that Linux is less supported or an afterthought.
Recommendations:
- Reorder the list of tools to mention cross-platform and Linux-compatible tools (Azure Data Studio, Visual Studio Code) before Windows-only tools (SSMS, SQL Server Data Tools).
- Explicitly state which tools are available on Linux and provide links or instructions for installing them on Linux.
- Include Linux-specific usage examples or references, such as command-line tools (sqlcmd, Azure CLI) and Docker/Kubernetes deployment instructions tailored for Linux environments.
- Add a section or callout highlighting best practices for Linux users, including troubleshooting tips or common issues encountered on Linux platforms.
- Ensure parity in documentation by providing equal detail and prominence to Linux-compatible workflows and tools.
