Summary:
The documentation shows evidence of Windows bias in several areas: Windows-specific tools and commands (e.g., robocopy, Explorer, PowerShell, RDP) are mentioned without Linux equivalents or before them; some examples and workarounds are only provided for Windows environments; and Linux alternatives or parity are often missing or underexplained. This may hinder Linux users from effectively following the guidance.
Recommendations:
- For every Windows-specific tool or command mentioned (e.g., robocopy, Explorer, PowerShell, RDP), provide equivalent Linux commands or tools (e.g., rsync/cp, Nautilus/Thunar, SSH, Linux shell commands).
- When giving command-line examples (such as mounting NFS shares or using sqlcmd), include both Windows and Linux syntax side by side.
- Avoid referencing Windows tools or patterns (e.g., 'use robocopy or Explorer') without also mentioning Linux alternatives.
- If a workaround or procedure is only described for Windows (e.g., PowerShell commands, RDP), add clear, step-by-step Linux alternatives.
- Review all troubleshooting and workaround sections to ensure Linux users are equally supported, especially for VM management, file operations, and connectivity.
- Consider reordering examples so that neither platform is always presented first, or present both together.
