Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by presenting Windows connection instructions and tools (such as 'net use', File Explorer, and Robocopy) first and in greater detail, while Linux instructions are brief, potentially incorrect (using NFS instead of SMB), and lack parity in copy tool examples. There is no mention of Linux file copy tools or GUI workflows, and the Linux mounting example may be inaccurate for SMB shares.
Recommendations:
- Provide Linux connection instructions using the correct SMB mount syntax (e.g., 'mount -t cifs ...'), not NFS.
- Present Linux and Windows instructions in parallel sections or with equal prominence.
- Include Linux file copy tool examples (e.g., 'cp', 'rsync', 'smbclient') similar to the Robocopy example for Windows.
- Mention Linux GUI options for accessing SMB shares (e.g., using Nautilus or Dolphin file managers).
- Avoid assuming Windows as the default by not presenting Windows steps first or exclusively.
- Ensure all screenshots and command samples have Linux equivalents where applicable.
