Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by providing only Windows-based instructions and examples, such as mounting Azure file shares using Windows-specific guides and creating Windows VMs. There are no Linux equivalents or alternative instructions for users on Linux systems. The SharePoint Migration Tool (SPMT), which is Windows-only, is recommended without mentioning alternatives or workarounds for Linux users.
Recommendations:
- Include parallel instructions for Linux users, such as how to mount Azure file shares on Linux VMs using SMB or NFS.
- Provide guidance on creating both Windows and Linux VMs in Azure, with links to relevant documentation for each.
- Acknowledge that SPMT is Windows-only and suggest alternative migration strategies or tools for Linux environments, if available.
- Present steps for both operating systems side by side or clearly indicate OS-specific steps to ensure inclusivity.
- Add a section or note clarifying OS requirements and limitations for the SharePoint Migration Tool.
