Summary
The documentation generally focuses on Linux-based workflows (SSH, Bash, HBase shell, curl), but in the prerequisites section, it presents Windows (specifically Windows Subsystem for Linux) as the primary example for running Bash and curl commands, mentioning Linux/Unix shells only as alternatives. Windows PowerShell is referenced as an option, but no PowerShell-specific examples are provided. There are no exclusive Windows tools or PowerShell-heavy sections, and Linux examples are present throughout, but the ordering and phrasing in the prerequisites subtly prioritize Windows.
Recommendations
  • In the prerequisites, mention Linux and macOS as primary platforms for Bash and curl, with Windows (via WSL) as an alternative, rather than the other way around.
  • Provide explicit Linux/macOS command-line examples where appropriate, and clarify that the tutorial is platform-agnostic unless otherwise noted.
  • If mentioning PowerShell, provide a concrete example or move the reference to a footnote or 'Other options' section.
  • Review the ordering and phrasing to ensure Linux is not presented as secondary to Windows, especially since HDInsight clusters are Linux-based.
  • Consider adding a short section or table summarizing how to run the commands on Linux, macOS, and Windows (with WSL), to reinforce parity.
