Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias primarily through exclusive references to SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) for administrative tasks, such as creating logins and users, and does not mention or provide examples for Linux-based tools (e.g., sqlcmd, Azure Data Studio) or CLI alternatives. All step-by-step instructions for configuring authentication and permissions assume the use of SSMS, a Windows-only tool, and no Linux or cross-platform equivalents are suggested. There are no PowerShell-specific examples, but the overall pattern is Windows-centric, and Linux parity is lacking.
Recommendations
  • Include instructions and examples for performing administrative tasks (e.g., creating logins, users, granting permissions) using cross-platform tools such as sqlcmd, Azure Data Studio, or Azure CLI.
  • Explicitly mention that SSMS is Windows-only and suggest alternatives for users on Linux or macOS.
  • Provide sample commands for Linux environments, especially for authentication and connectivity setup.
  • Add a section or callout for Linux users, outlining any differences or additional steps required.
  • Ensure screenshots and UI references are supplemented with CLI or script-based alternatives where possible.
