Description

Some of the current terminal/shell instructions are specific to linux-based terminals, and do not work for Windows users using Powershell.

Example: https://docs.source.coop/data-upload#for-terminal--shell-usage

In the case where the shell instructions are different, we could display them on separate tabs of the code block.

Research direction

Start with the linked data-upload page and review the terminal/shell instructions that currently assume Linux. Check the Docusaurus tabs and MystMD tabs references, then separate differing MacOS/Linux and Windows PowerShell commands into toggleable sections; done means Windows users can follow the page successfully without losing the existing instructions.
