Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: PowerShell is the only CLI tool used for all resource creation and configuration examples, with no equivalent Azure CLI or Bash examples for Linux users. Windows tools and modules (e.g., AzFilesSmbMIClient, PowerShellGet) are described in detail before Linux alternatives, and the instructions for preparing the environment and troubleshooting are more comprehensive for Windows. Linux instructions are present but less detailed, and some steps (such as storage account creation/configuration) lack Linux-native command examples.
Recommendations
- Provide Azure CLI or Bash examples alongside PowerShell for resource creation and configuration steps, especially for storage account and file share setup.
- Ensure Linux instructions are as detailed as Windows instructions, including troubleshooting and environment preparation.
- Present Windows and Linux examples in parallel, rather than Windows-first, to avoid implicit prioritization.
- Mention and link to Linux equivalents for all Windows tools and modules where possible.
- Clarify any limitations or differences in parity between Windows and Linux up front, and provide workarounds or alternatives for Linux users.
