Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias primarily by referencing and providing examples for Windows-specific tools (such as SqlPackage.exe and .cmd command syntax), without mentioning or providing equivalent instructions for Linux environments. There are no examples or guidance for using Linux-native tools or running these commands in a Linux shell. The order of tool presentation also places Windows tools first, with no Linux parity.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux equivalents for all command-line tools mentioned (e.g., show how to use sqlpackage on Linux, including installation and usage examples with bash syntax).
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform compatibility for tools like sqlcmd and Azure Data Studio, and provide Linux/macOS installation links and usage instructions.
  • Include bash/zsh shell command examples alongside .cmd examples, and clarify any differences in environment variables or file paths.
  • Avoid referring to tools as .exe unless specifically discussing Windows; use generic tool names where possible.
  • Add a section or callout for Linux users, highlighting any differences or prerequisites for running the tutorial on Linux.
