Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by requiring a Windows computer for the Data Sync Agent, mentioning only Windows-based tools (such as PowerShell) for management and automation, and omitting any Linux or cross-platform alternatives or instructions. There are no Linux-specific examples or guidance, and the documentation assumes the user is operating in a Windows environment.
Recommendations:
- Provide explicit guidance on whether the Data Sync Agent can be run on Linux (e.g., via Wine, containers, or native support), or clarify its platform limitations.
- Include Linux-based examples for setup and management, such as using Azure CLI or bash scripts where possible.
- If PowerShell is required, mention cross-platform PowerShell Core and provide installation instructions for Linux and macOS.
- Clearly state platform requirements and, if Windows is mandatory, suggest possible workarounds for Linux users (such as using a Windows VM or container).
- Add troubleshooting and best practices sections relevant to Linux environments, if supported.
