Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by frequently prioritizing Windows-specific features (such as Azure File Sync, which is only available for Windows), referencing Windows tools (PowerShell) before or more prominently than cross-platform alternatives, and providing detailed instructions or examples for Windows scenarios while omitting equivalent Linux guidance. Linux support is mentioned for certain NFS and Kerberos features, but overall, Windows and PowerShell are more deeply integrated and discussed, especially for management and agent deployment scenarios.
Recommendations:
- When referencing management tools, always mention Azure CLI and REST API alongside PowerShell, and provide parity in example commands for both Windows and Linux environments.
- For features like Azure File Sync, clearly state platform limitations and, where possible, suggest alternative solutions for Linux (such as rsync, AzCopy, or third-party sync tools).
- Ensure that new features and enhancements are described with both Windows and Linux use cases, including explicit Linux client scenarios where applicable.
- Add Linux-specific examples and workflows, especially for mounting, managing, and securing file shares, to match the depth provided for Windows.
- Review the order of tool and platform mentions to avoid always listing Windows or PowerShell first; alternate or group by scenario instead.
- Where screenshots or UI walkthroughs are provided, include Linux/Unix terminal examples or references to relevant Linux documentation.
