Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a bias toward Windows environments, particularly in the database setup section. PowerShell is used exclusively for Docker-based SQL Server setup, and SQL Server Express is recommended for local development on Windows. There are no Linux-specific shell examples (e.g., bash), and Windows tools/patterns (PowerShell, SQL Server Express) are mentioned before or instead of Linux equivalents. The troubleshooting and validation steps also assume Windows-centric tooling and folder structures.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent bash shell commands for Docker-based SQL Server setup, especially for Linux/macOS users.
  • Mention and demonstrate using native Linux SQL Server tools (e.g., sqlcmd installed via apt/yum, Azure Data Studio on Linux) for database management and validation.
  • Explicitly state cross-platform compatibility in setup instructions, and avoid recommending Windows-only tools (like SQL Server Express) as the primary local development option.
  • Add troubleshooting steps relevant to Linux/macOS environments (e.g., Docker folder paths, permissions).
  • Ensure all command-line examples are provided in both PowerShell and bash syntax, with clear indications for which OS each applies to.
  • Reorder instructions so that cross-platform or Linux/macOS options are presented alongside or before Windows-specific guidance.
