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. The installation instructions for Microsoft Azure Storage Explorer reference Windows, and there are no equivalent Linux/macOS command-line examples (e.g., using bash, nslookup, or dig) or guidance for installing Storage Explorer on non-Windows platforms. The tutorial implicitly assumes the VM is running Windows, with no mention of Linux VM workflows.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel instructions for Linux/macOS users, including command-line examples using bash and tools like nslookup or dig.
  • Clarify that Storage Explorer is available for Linux/macOS and provide installation links and steps for those platforms.
  • When instructing users to connect to the VM, specify how to do so for both Windows and Linux VMs (e.g., using SSH for Linux).
  • Offer example outputs for Linux/macOS commands where PowerShell output is currently shown.
  • Avoid assuming the OS of the VM; explicitly state when instructions differ by platform.
