Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All code examples and setup instructions are based on Visual Studio (Windows-only), the .NET SDK, and PowerShell/NuGet Package Manager Console. Prerequisites and tooling exclusively mention Windows tools such as Visual Studio and Azure Storage Explorer, with no mention of Linux or cross-platform alternatives. There are no instructions or code samples for Linux or macOS users, nor are any cross-platform development environments or SDKs (such as Python or Java) referenced.
Recommendations:
- Add equivalent instructions and code samples for Linux and macOS users, such as using VS Code or JetBrains Rider as the IDE, and the .NET Core SDK (which is cross-platform) instead of Visual Studio 2019.
- Provide command-line instructions for installing the required NuGet packages using the dotnet CLI (e.g., 'dotnet add package ...'), which works on all platforms.
- Mention and provide examples for using cross-platform tools such as Azure CLI and azcopy for interacting with Azure Storage, in addition to or instead of Azure Storage Explorer.
- Include alternative code samples using other supported SDKs (such as Python or Java) that are popular and well-supported on Linux.
- Explicitly state which steps are Windows-specific and offer Linux/macOS alternatives where possible.
- Ensure that all screenshots and UI instructions are either cross-platform or have Linux/macOS equivalents.
