Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias by referencing Visual Studio Code (VS Code) and the Microsoft Sentinel extension as the primary environment for running Jupyter notebooks, without mentioning Linux alternatives or cross-platform setup. There are no examples or guidance for running the notebooks on Linux or macOS, nor any mention of Linux-specific tools or patterns. The language and screenshots assume a Windows-centric workflow, and prerequisites focus on Windows tooling.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention that Jupyter notebooks and the Microsoft Sentinel Python SDK can be used on Linux and macOS, not just Windows.
  • Provide instructions or examples for setting up and running the notebooks on Linux (e.g., using JupyterLab or classic Jupyter Notebook, installing required Python packages via pip).
  • Include screenshots or references to Linux environments (such as Ubuntu Desktop, GNOME Terminal, etc.) to demonstrate parity.
  • Clarify that the Microsoft Sentinel extension for VS Code is available cross-platform, or offer alternatives for Linux users if there are limitations.
  • Add troubleshooting or environment setup notes for Linux users, such as handling Spark, Python, and package dependencies.
  • Avoid language that implies Windows is the default or only supported platform (e.g., 'within Visual Studio Code' could be expanded to 'using Jupyter notebooks in Visual Studio Code or other environments').
