Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias primarily in the configuration settings for HDInsight Spark.NET, where paths and tools (e.g., 7z.exe, winutils.exe, JAVA_HOME, SCALA_HOME, SPARK_HOME) are shown only with Windows-style paths and Windows-specific tools. There are no Linux/macOS equivalents or examples provided, and Windows paths are listed first and exclusively. This may cause confusion or friction for Linux/macOS users who need to configure these settings.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent Linux/macOS configuration examples for all environment variables (e.g., JAVA_HOME, SCALA_HOME, SPARK_HOME) using POSIX-style paths.
- Clarify which settings are Windows-only (e.g., winutils.exe) and provide guidance or alternatives for Linux/macOS users.
- Include notes or tables showing both Windows and Linux/macOS paths and installation locations for common tools.
- If certain features are Windows-only, explicitly state this and suggest Linux/macOS workarounds or limitations.
