Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in its examples and patterns. In the 'Work with Azure Files using System.IO' section, all code examples use Windows-style paths (e.g., Z:\file-share) and reference mounted SMB shares on Windows, with no equivalent Linux examples (such as mounting via NFS or using Linux path conventions). The first and only code samples for file share access and manipulation are Windows-centric, and Linux mounting is only mentioned in passing, not demonstrated. There are no Linux-specific code snippets or instructions for working with mounted shares using Linux paths.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel Linux examples for mounting Azure Files shares, including sample mount commands and code using Linux path conventions (e.g., '/mnt/file-share').
  • Include code samples that demonstrate using System.IO with Linux-mounted shares, showing how to enumerate directories, write files, and manage ACLs using Linux paths.
  • When presenting examples, alternate or equally present Windows and Linux scenarios, rather than defaulting to Windows first.
  • Add guidance or troubleshooting notes for common Linux-specific issues (e.g., permissions, NFS quirks) when working with Azure Files.
  • Explicitly state cross-platform compatibility and highlight any differences in behavior or APIs between Windows and Linux.
