Summary
The documentation generally maintains cross-platform neutrality, but in the section on editing the hosts file for DNS testing, the Windows path (%SystemDrive%\drivers\etc\hosts) is listed before the Linux/macOS path (/etc/hosts). Additionally, a related content link points to a Windows 2000 Server DNS article, which is outdated and Windows-specific. No PowerShell-heavy or Windows-only command examples are present, but subtle prioritization of Windows paths and tools is evident.
Recommendations
  • List Linux/macOS and Windows hosts file paths in parallel or in alphabetical order, or provide separate instructions for each platform to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Replace or supplement the 'Creating a record in DNS' related link with a modern, cross-platform or Azure-native DNS documentation link.
  • Where platform-specific paths or tools are mentioned, ensure equal prominence and detail for Linux/macOS equivalents.
  • Consider including example commands or screenshots for both Windows and Linux environments where relevant (e.g., editing hosts file, DNS setup).
