Summary:
The documentation is heavily oriented towards Windows environments. It assumes the use of Visual Studio (a primarily Windows tool), requires a Windows-based DevTest Labs VM, and only provides instructions for connecting via RDP and using File Explorer to access the Azure file share. There are no examples or guidance for Linux-based VMs, nor are alternative tools or workflows (such as VS Code, SCP, or SMB mounting on Linux) mentioned.
Recommendations:
- Include instructions for publishing and accessing apps from Linux-based DevTest Labs VMs, such as mounting Azure file shares using SMB on Linux.
- Provide alternative examples using cross-platform tools (e.g., Visual Studio Code, dotnet CLI) for publishing applications.
- Add guidance for connecting to Linux VMs (e.g., using SSH) and accessing the file share via the Linux file system.
- Mention and link to documentation for mounting Azure file shares on Linux and macOS.
- Clarify in the prerequisites and throughout the article that the instructions are Windows-specific, and provide parity for other platforms where possible.
