Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias. File path examples consistently mention Windows paths (e.g., 'c:\temp') before Linux equivalents ('/tmp'), and the sample output file names use Windows-style paths as the primary example. Configuration examples and instructions often default to Windows conventions. There is also a reference to retrieving tenant IDs via the Microsoft Entra ID portal, which is a GUI-centric (and often Windows-used) approach, with no mention of CLI alternatives. However, Linux is not entirely neglected: Linux paths and commands (such as logger) are included, and there is a troubleshooting note for Ubuntu Docker images. There are no PowerShell-specific commands, but the overall pattern is to mention Windows first and more prominently.
Recommendations:
- Present Linux and Windows examples side by side, or alternate which OS is presented first in examples.
- When giving file path examples, use both Windows and Linux formats together (e.g., 'c:\temp' (Windows) and '/tmp' (Linux)), or use OS-agnostic placeholders.
- For instructions that reference the Azure portal for information retrieval, also provide CLI-based alternatives (e.g., using Azure CLI or Bash commands) to support headless and Linux-first workflows.
- Ensure that all code snippets and configuration examples are equally applicable to both Windows and Linux environments, and explicitly state any OS-specific differences.
- Add a section or callout summarizing cross-platform compatibility and any known OS-specific caveats.
