Summary:
The documentation assumes the use of Windows-based tools and drivers (such as ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server and Azure Data Studio) and does not provide any Linux-specific instructions or alternatives. There is no mention of Linux-compatible drivers, nor are there installation or troubleshooting notes for Linux users. All connection strings and tool recommendations are Windows-centric, and there are no examples or guidance for Linux environments.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit instructions for installing and configuring ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server on Linux, including package manager commands for popular distributions (e.g., apt, yum).
- Mention and provide links to Linux-compatible versions of Azure Data Studio, and clarify any differences in installation or usage.
- Include troubleshooting notes for common Linux issues (e.g., driver library paths, permissions).
- Provide example connection strings and code snippets that work on Linux, including any required environment variables or driver names.
- Clearly state cross-platform compatibility and highlight any steps that differ between Windows and Linux.
- If any steps are Windows-only, provide equivalent Linux alternatives or explicitly note the limitation.
