Summary
The documentation generally presents Azure data transfer solutions in a cross-platform manner, mentioning tools and SDKs available for multiple operating systems. However, in the 'Next steps' section, the PowerShell quickstart is listed before the Azure CLI quickstart, which may subtly prioritize Windows users. Additionally, PowerShell is highlighted as a scriptable tool alongside AzCopy and Azure CLI, but no explicit Linux/macOS shell examples are given, and PowerShell is more closely associated with Windows environments.
Recommendations
- List Azure CLI quickstart before or alongside PowerShell quickstart to avoid Windows-first ordering.
- Explicitly mention that AzCopy and Azure CLI are cross-platform and provide links or examples for Linux/macOS usage.
- Add a note clarifying that PowerShell Core is available on Linux/macOS, or provide Bash shell examples for parity.
- Ensure graphical tools (like Storage Explorer) are noted as cross-platform where applicable.
