Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows, with the Azure Storage Emulator only available for Windows and all usage instructions, examples, and tooling references (such as PowerShell, SQL Server, and Windows UI patterns) being Windows-centric. Linux is only mentioned as an alternative via Azurite, but no Linux-specific instructions, examples, or parity tooling are provided. The command-line examples and authentication flows are exclusively Windows/PowerShell-based, and there is no guidance for Linux users on how to achieve similar workflows.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Linux/macOS instructions for local Azure Storage development using Azurite, including installation, startup, and authentication flows.
- Include CLI examples (e.g., Bash, Azure CLI) for generating SAS tokens and managing storage resources, not just PowerShell.
- Document how to use Azurite with common Linux tools (e.g., Docker, npm) and show how to connect to Azurite from cross-platform SDKs.
- Add a section comparing Storage Emulator and Azurite, with migration guidance and parity notes for developers moving from Windows to Linux.
- Ensure all tooling references (e.g., Storage Explorer, SQL management) include Linux-compatible alternatives or usage notes.
