Summary:
The documentation exhibits a Windows bias by presenting Windows-specific tools, commands, and patterns before or in greater detail than their Linux equivalents. Examples for file copying and mounting Azure Files are provided only for Windows (using cmdkey, net use, and Windows-style azcopy syntax), while Linux mounting and usage are referenced but not exemplified. The documentation also references Windows tools and workflows (e.g., PowerShell, cmdkey, net use) without providing parallel Linux command-line examples or explicit parity in instructions.
Recommendations:
- Provide Linux command-line examples for all file copy and mounting operations, such as using azcopy with Linux syntax, and mounting Azure Files with mount.cifs or SMB utilities.
- Ensure that for every Windows-specific tool or workflow mentioned (e.g., cmdkey, net use), a Linux equivalent (e.g., smbclient, mount -t cifs) is described and exemplified.
- Present Linux and Windows examples side-by-side or in parallel sections, rather than Windows-first or Windows-only.
- Include explicit instructions and code snippets for mounting Azure Files on Linux VMs, not just referencing blobfuse.
- Review the order of presentation to avoid always listing Windows tools and workflows before Linux equivalents.
