Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows environments, with all command-line examples using PowerShell, references to Windows paths (e.g., C:\WINDOWS\system32), and instructions for editing the Windows hosts file and running Notepad as administrator. Tools like Storage Explorer and AzCopy are mentioned, but usage instructions and screenshots are Windows-centric. There are no bash, CLI, or Linux/macOS shell examples for any step, and no guidance for Linux-specific workflows (e.g., editing /etc/hosts, converting certificates with OpenSSL, or running Azure CLI on Linux/macOS). This creates friction for Linux/macOS users, who must adapt Windows-specific instructions to their platforms without direct guidance.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent bash/Azure CLI examples for all PowerShell commands, including resource group, storage account, and VM creation.
- Include instructions for editing the hosts file on Linux/macOS (e.g., /etc/hosts) and recommend appropriate text editors (nano, vim, etc.).
- Show how to convert certificates using OpenSSL on Linux/macOS, not just Certutil on Windows.
- Add screenshots or descriptions for Storage Explorer usage on Linux/macOS, noting any platform-specific differences.
- Explicitly mention that all steps can be performed from Linux/macOS, and highlight any platform-specific caveats.
- Ensure that sample output and file paths are not exclusively Windows-style.
- Where AzCopy is referenced, provide Linux/macOS installation and usage notes.
