Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas: Windows tools and interfaces (such as PowerShell, robocopy, Windows Explorer, and RDP) are referenced or used in examples, sometimes without Linux equivalents. In some cases, only Windows command examples are provided, or Windows-specific workarounds are described before (or instead of) Linux alternatives. Linux tools and workflows are sometimes omitted or mentioned only as an afterthought.
Recommendations
  • For every example or workaround involving Windows tools (e.g., robocopy, Windows Explorer, PowerShell), provide equivalent Linux commands (e.g., rsync, cp, bash commands, SSH).
  • When referencing connecting to the device interface (e.g., PowerShell), also describe how to connect from Linux (e.g., SSH, Bash).
  • In tables or lists where Windows and Linux clients are both relevant, present both options side by side, or alternate which is presented first.
  • For SQL command-line tools, mention Linux installation and usage of sqlcmd, not just Windows.
  • Avoid using only Windows path formats (e.g., C:\Users\...) in mount examples; provide Linux mount command equivalents.
  • Where Windows-specific issues are described, clarify if similar issues exist or do not exist for Linux VMs.
  • Audit all examples and instructions to ensure Linux users are equally supported and not left to infer the correct approach.
