Summary
The documentation generally presents Windows information first and provides more detail for Windows prerequisites (e.g., .NET runtime requirements and installer behavior). The local storage emulator section lists the Windows-only Azure Storage Emulator before Azurite, which is cross-platform. There are no PowerShell-heavy examples or exclusive Windows command-line instructions, but some minor bias is present in the ordering and detail level. Linux installation instructions are present and reasonably detailed, but SLES support is noted as untested, and troubleshooting links sometimes point to Ubuntu pages even for other distros.
Recommendations
  • Present OS sections in a neutral or rotating order (e.g., start with Linux or macOS sometimes).
  • Provide equivalent detail for Linux/macOS prerequisites, including explicit dependency lists for .tar.gz installs.
  • Clarify troubleshooting links for each Linux distro, not just Ubuntu.
  • In the local storage emulator section, list Azurite (cross-platform) before the Windows-only Azure Storage Emulator and clarify emulator options for Linux/macOS.
  • Add notes about .NET runtime requirements for Linux/macOS if applicable.
  • Explicitly mention parity or differences in features between platforms where relevant.
