Summary
The tutorial demonstrates a notable Windows bias, especially in the connectivity testing section. It instructs users to open Windows PowerShell and provides only a PowerShell example for DNS resolution. There are no Linux/macOS equivalents (e.g., Bash, Terminal, or 'nslookup' on Linux), and the installation instructions for Azure Storage Explorer reference only Windows. The workflow assumes a Windows VM and does not mention Linux or macOS alternatives, making it less accessible to non-Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/macOS command-line examples (e.g., Bash/Terminal commands for DNS resolution such as 'nslookup' or 'dig').
  • Clarify that Azure Storage Explorer is available for Linux/macOS and provide installation instructions or links for those platforms.
  • Explicitly mention that the virtual machine can be Linux-based and include steps for connecting via SSH and running equivalent commands.
  • Avoid assuming the use of Windows PowerShell; use cross-platform terminology like 'open a terminal' and provide parallel instructions for different OSes.
