Summary:
The documentation exclusively references SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), a Windows-only tool, for all procedures. All examples and UI walkthroughs are based on SSMS, with no mention of cross-platform or Linux alternatives. File path examples use Windows UNC paths, and authentication options reference Windows authentication. There are no instructions or guidance for users on Linux or macOS platforms.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent instructions using cross-platform tools such as Azure Data Studio or command-line utilities (e.g., sqlcmd, Azure CLI) where possible.
- Explicitly state the platform requirements and, if SSMS is mandatory, clarify that it is Windows-only and suggest workarounds for non-Windows users (such as using a Windows VM or remote desktop).
- Include examples of file paths and authentication methods relevant to Linux environments, or clarify limitations.
- If no Linux-native options exist, acknowledge this in the documentation and provide guidance for Linux users on how to proceed.
