Summary
The documentation page shows evidence of Windows bias primarily through references to Windows-specific tools (such as the Storage Emulator), and by mentioning Windows-centric options (PowerShell, Storage Emulator) before or instead of Linux equivalents. There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform alternatives provided for the Storage Emulator, and PowerShell is referenced as an alternative to Azure CLI without any mention of Bash or Linux shell scripting. The instructions for local development and debugging assume the use of the Storage Emulator, which is only available on Windows, and do not mention Azurite's cross-platform capabilities or provide Linux setup instructions.
Recommendations
  • Replace references to the Storage Emulator with Azurite, and provide explicit instructions for installing and running Azurite on Linux and macOS.
  • When mentioning PowerShell, also mention Bash or other Linux-native scripting options, and provide equivalent examples if relevant.
  • Ensure all CLI examples are explicitly cross-platform (e.g., Azure CLI), and clarify that they work on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • Add a section or callout for Linux/macOS users, including any differences in setup, especially for local development and storage emulation.
  • Review screenshots and UI instructions to ensure they are not Windows-specific, or provide alternatives for Linux/macOS users where applicable.
