Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows-centric tools (e.g., SSMS, UNC paths, Windows authentication), mentioning PowerShell as an alternative method for provisioning, and omitting Linux-specific examples or cross-platform alternatives. Windows patterns (such as UNC paths and SSMS usage) are presented as defaults, and there is no mention of Linux equivalents or guidance for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux-specific instructions or alternatives for tasks such as connecting to file systems, managing package stores, and authentication.
  • Provide examples using Azure CLI and Bash scripts alongside PowerShell, especially in the 'Related content' section.
  • Clarify cross-platform compatibility for tools like SSMS, or suggest alternatives (e.g., Azure Data Studio) that run on Linux.
  • When referencing file paths, include both Windows (UNC) and Linux (NFS, SMB mount) formats.
  • Explicitly state which steps or tools are platform-agnostic and which are Windows-specific, and provide guidance for Linux/macOS users where appropriate.
