Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a subtle Windows bias, primarily through the exclusive mention and linking of a PowerShell script (Set-SynapseEnvironment.ps1) for setting up Synapse environments, with no equivalent Bash or Linux instructions provided. Additionally, tools and workflows such as SSMS (SQL Server Management Studio) and Power BI are referenced, which are traditionally Windows-centric. There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform command-line examples, and the documentation does not mention or prioritize Linux-compatible alternatives or instructions.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/bash equivalents for all scripts and setup instructions, especially for critical steps like Synapse environment setup.
  • Explicitly mention and link to cross-platform tools or alternatives where Windows-specific tools (e.g., SSMS, Power BI) are referenced.
  • Add examples or documentation sections that demonstrate workflows on Linux and macOS, ensuring parity with Windows instructions.
  • When referencing scripts or tools, indicate their platform compatibility and provide guidance for users on non-Windows systems.
  • Consider listing cross-platform or Linux-first tools before or alongside Windows tools to avoid implicit prioritization.
