Summary
The documentation demonstrates a clear Windows bias by providing only PowerShell examples for key generation and certificate creation, referencing Windows-specific tools (e.g., PowerShell's New-SelfSignedCertificate), and omitting equivalent Linux/macOS commands or guidance. All code samples for cryptographic operations are Windows-centric, and there is no mention of cross-platform alternatives or parity for non-Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • For every PowerShell or Windows-specific example, provide equivalent Linux/macOS commands (e.g., using OpenSSL for key and certificate generation).
  • Explicitly mention that the steps can be performed on Linux/macOS and provide sample shell commands.
  • Reference cross-platform tools (such as OpenSSL, or .NET CLI commands) alongside Windows tools.
  • Reorder sections or add notes to avoid implying Windows is the default or only supported environment.
  • Link to external documentation for Linux/macOS cryptographic operations where appropriate.
