Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows Server environments, with all examples, instructions, and screenshots tailored exclusively to Windows. There is no mention of Linux or macOS support, nor are alternative steps or tools provided for non-Windows platforms. The use of Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, Internet Explorer, Server Manager) and the absence of cross-platform guidance create a strong Windows bias.
Recommendations
- Clarify in the introduction whether Azure File Sync supports only Windows or if Linux/macOS alternatives exist.
- If Linux/macOS support is available, provide equivalent setup instructions, examples, and screenshots for those platforms.
- Mention and link to any cross-platform tools or APIs that can be used to interact with Azure File Sync from Linux/macOS.
- If Azure File Sync is Windows-only, explicitly state this limitation early in the documentation to set expectations for non-Windows users.
- Consider adding a comparison table of supported operating systems and features.
