Summary
The documentation exhibits a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows-centric tools and examples. FTP/S client recommendations list Visual Studio and WinSCP (both Windows-focused) before cross-platform or Linux-native options. Troubleshooting and connection examples reference WinSCP documentation, and there are no explicit Linux command-line or tool examples (e.g., lftp, FileZilla, or Linux CLI usage). PowerShell is given its own tab for endpoint retrieval and configuration, but there is no mention of Linux shell equivalents or scripts. No Linux-specific troubleshooting or guidance is provided.
Recommendations
- Add explicit Linux examples for connecting to FTP/S endpoints using common Linux tools (e.g., lftp, curl, ncftp, or FileZilla).
- Include Linux shell (bash) command-line examples for retrieving publishing profiles and configuring FTPS state, in addition to Azure CLI and PowerShell.
- List cross-platform or Linux-native FTP clients (such as FileZilla, lftp, or GNOME Files) alongside or before Windows-specific tools.
- Provide troubleshooting steps and links relevant to Linux environments (e.g., firewall configuration, passive mode setup, permissions).
- Balance the order of examples and tool recommendations so that Linux and cross-platform options are not always listed after or subordinate to Windows/PowerShell.
