Summary
The documentation generally covers both Windows and Linux scenarios for Azure Files, but there is a subtle Windows bias. Windows terminology, features, and examples (such as AD DS, SMB, and PowerShell) are mentioned first or more prominently. Linux support is acknowledged, but Linux-specific instructions, tools, and examples are less detailed or referenced later. Some features (like Azure File Sync and SMB over QUIC) are Windows-only, but the overall guidance could better highlight Linux parity and provide more direct Linux examples.
Recommendations
- Include explicit Linux mounting examples and CLI commands (e.g., mount -t cifs, mount -t nfs) alongside Windows/PowerShell instructions.
- When listing supported OSes or protocols, present Linux and Windows equally (not always Windows first).
- Add references to Linux tools (e.g., smbclient, nfs-utils) and troubleshooting steps for Linux.
- Where features are Windows-only (e.g., Azure File Sync), clarify alternatives or limitations for Linux users.
- Ensure links to Linux-specific documentation are as prominent as Windows links.
