Summary
The documentation provides parity between Windows and Linux in terms of supported features and step-by-step instructions, but exhibits a moderate Windows bias in several areas. PowerShell is used as the primary automation example for both platforms, even though it is native to Windows and less common on Linux. Windows-specific tools and patterns (e.g., 'cmdkey', 'net use', RDP) are described in detail, often before Linux equivalents. Troubleshooting and manual mounting instructions are more verbose for Windows, and references to Windows tools appear first in several sections.
Recommendations
  • Provide native Bash or shell script examples for Linux, rather than relying solely on PowerShell for automation.
  • Present Linux and Windows instructions in parallel, or alternate which platform is shown first in each section.
  • Expand troubleshooting steps for Linux to match the detail given for Windows, including common Linux-specific errors and solutions.
  • Include more Linux-native tool references (e.g., 'mount', 'cifs-utils', 'nfs-common') and usage patterns.
  • Clarify when PowerShell is required on Linux, and offer alternatives for users who prefer Bash or other shells.
