Summary
The documentation page for Azure Files and Azure File Sync exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Windows terminology, tools, and features (such as PowerShell, Windows Server, and SMB) are mentioned more frequently and often before their Linux equivalents. Several new features and enhancements are described with a Windows-centric focus, especially regarding Azure File Sync and agent installation. Examples and instructions for Linux (NFS, Kerberos, etc.) are present but less detailed and less frequent. Linux/macOS users may need to seek additional resources or infer parity for some features.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit Linux/macOS examples and instructions alongside Windows/PowerShell ones, especially for agent installation and management tasks.
- Ensure parity in feature descriptions, listing Linux/NFS capabilities with equal prominence and detail as Windows/SMB features.
- Include references to Linux tools (e.g., shell scripts, systemd, cron) where Windows tools (PowerShell, Windows Server) are mentioned.
- Add links to Linux/macOS-specific documentation in 'See also' sections.
- When describing new features, clarify their applicability to Linux/macOS environments and provide usage scenarios for those platforms.
