Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: Windows-centric tools (PowerShell, Azure Storage Explorer) are listed before or more prominently than Linux equivalents; PowerShell is frequently referenced for tasks like ingestion and monitoring, with no equivalent Bash or Linux shell examples; Azure CLI is mentioned but not prioritized; and there are no explicit Linux-specific examples or guidance, such as Bash scripts or Linux-native tools. The documentation assumes familiarity with Windows tooling and patterns, potentially making it less accessible for Linux users.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux/Bash shell examples alongside or before PowerShell examples for common operations.
- Explicitly mention cross-platform compatibility for tools like AzCopy and Azure CLI, and provide usage examples on Linux.
- Include references to Linux-native tools (e.g., curl, wget, shell scripts) for REST API interactions.
- Add guidance for using Azure Data Lake Storage from Linux environments, including authentication and automation patterns.
- Ensure that tables and lists of tools do not prioritize Windows tools over cross-platform or Linux-native options.
- Where PowerShell is referenced, also provide Bash/CLI equivalents to ensure parity.
