Summary
The documentation provides PowerShell examples for all code scenarios, but does not provide equivalent Linux shell (bash/CLI) examples. The setup instructions for .NET reference 'command prompt' (a Windows term) and do not mention cross-platform shells. The PowerShell examples use Windows-specific tools and patterns, and are always presented first in each code tab group, indicating a 'Windows-first' ordering. There are no bash, Azure CLI, or Linux-native scripting examples, and no mention of Linux-specific tools or environments.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent Azure CLI (az storage blob query) or bash scripting examples alongside PowerShell for all scenarios.
  • In setup instructions, use cross-platform terminology such as 'terminal' instead of 'command prompt', and clarify that commands work on Windows, Linux, and macOS.
  • Alternate the order of code tabs or default to a more neutral SDK (such as Python or JavaScript) to avoid a Windows-first impression.
  • Explicitly mention that PowerShell examples can be run on PowerShell Core on Linux/macOS, or provide bash alternatives.
  • Review all references to Windows-specific tools and ensure Linux users are equally supported.
