Summary:
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. All prerequisites, instructions, and examples assume the use of Windows operating systems and tools (e.g., BitLocker, .NET Framework, drive letters, WAImportExport.exe). There is no mention of Linux or cross-platform support, nor are there any examples or guidance for Linux users.
Recommendations:
- Clearly state whether the Azure Import/Export Tool is supported on Linux. If not, mention this limitation explicitly at the beginning.
- If Linux support exists (or is planned), provide equivalent installation and usage instructions for Linux, including command-line examples and any required dependencies.
- Offer alternatives or workarounds for Linux users, such as using a Windows VM or container, and document the process.
- Where possible, use platform-agnostic language (e.g., 'mount point' instead of 'drive letter') and provide examples for both Windows and Linux.
- Mention Linux-compatible encryption and file system tools if BitLocker is not available.
