Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Azure Storage Explorer (a GUI tool with a primary focus on Windows) for uploading files and generating SAS tokens, and by providing a link to a Storage Explorer guide that defaults to Windows tabs. There are no examples or instructions for Linux-native tools (such as azcopy, Azure CLI, or standard shell commands) for these tasks. This may disadvantage Linux users or those working in headless/server environments.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent instructions and examples for uploading files and generating SAS tokens using cross-platform CLI tools such as Azure CLI (az storage blob upload, az storage blob generate-sas) or azcopy.
- Avoid referencing GUI tools (like Storage Explorer) as the primary or sole method, or at least present CLI alternatives first or alongside.
- Ensure that links to further documentation include Linux/macOS tabs or instructions, not just Windows.
- Explicitly mention that all Azure CLI commands are cross-platform and can be run on Windows, Linux, or macOS.
- If referencing Storage Explorer, clarify its availability on Linux and macOS, or provide a note about alternative tools for those platforms.
