Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by presenting Windows-specific troubleshooting steps and tools before their Linux equivalents, especially in the AzCopy section. Windows paths and tools are often mentioned first, and some recommendations (such as syncing time with time.windows.com) are Windows-centric. There are also more detailed or explicit instructions for Windows users, while Linux guidance is sometimes less prominent or appears later.
Recommendations:
- Present Linux and Windows instructions in parallel or in a unified table, rather than in separate sections with Windows first.
- Ensure that Linux examples and troubleshooting steps are as detailed and explicit as their Windows counterparts.
- Mention cross-platform tools and paths together, or alternate the order in which they are presented.
- When referencing system-level requirements (such as NTP servers), provide Linux-appropriate defaults (e.g., pool.ntp.org) alongside Windows ones.
- Avoid using Windows-specific terminology (e.g., 'system’s certificate store') without clarifying the Linux equivalent.
- Where possible, provide shell command examples for Linux (not just environment variable settings), and ensure parity with any PowerShell or Windows command examples.
