Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias in several areas: Windows requirements and tools (Robocopy, PowerShell) are consistently presented before Linux equivalents, and Windows-specific instructions are more detailed. Windows tools (Robocopy) are highlighted as the recommended migration method, while Linux alternatives (rsync, fpsync) are mentioned but with less emphasis and detail. PowerShell/Windows command examples are more prominent, and troubleshooting for Windows is more extensive. Some Linux-specific migration scenarios (e.g., using fpsync for large datasets) are referenced but not elaborated. The documentation could better balance the coverage and detail for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux and Windows instructions in parallel, or alternate which platform is shown first in each section.
  • Provide equally detailed examples and explanations for Linux migration tools (e.g., fpsync, rsync) as for Robocopy.
  • Include troubleshooting steps for Linux migration tools (e.g., fpsync) and common Linux errors.
  • Expand on Linux-specific scenarios, such as mounting NFS shares, optimizing rsync/fpsync for large datasets, and handling Linux file permissions.
  • Add links to Linux documentation and community resources with the same prominence as Windows resources.
  • Ensure that recommendations and best practices are given for both platforms, not just Windows (e.g., performance optimization, security).
