Summary:
The documentation shows a mild Windows bias. It suggests launching Notepad to create a file, which is a Windows-specific tool, and refers to 'command prompt with administrator privileges' before 'terminal', which is a Windows-first phrasing. There are no explicit Linux/macOS examples or tool recommendations (e.g., nano, vi, or touch for file creation), and no mention of Linux-specific instructions for uploading files or running commands. The only optional tool mentioned is Azure Storage Explorer, which is cross-platform, but no Linux-native alternatives or CLI methods are discussed.
Recommendations:
- When instructing users to create a text file, mention cross-platform editors (e.g., Notepad (Windows), nano/vi (Linux/macOS), or any text editor).
- Instruct users to 'open a terminal or command prompt' without specifying administrator privileges unless required, and clarify if sudo is needed on Linux/macOS.
- Provide examples for uploading files to Azure Blob Storage using Azure CLI or azcopy, which are cross-platform, in addition to Azure Storage Explorer.
- Explicitly state that all Python code and commands work on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and mention any OS-specific considerations.
- Where possible, include Linux/macOS shell commands (e.g., touch input.txt, nano input.txt) alongside Windows instructions.
