Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ powershell_heavy
Summary:
The documentation exhibits a moderate Windows bias. While it does provide some cross-platform guidance (notably OpenSSL for certificate export), it frequently references Windows-specific tools (IIS, Certreq.exe), and in automation examples, PowerShell is given equal or more prominence than Linux-native alternatives. There is a lack of explicit Linux or macOS-specific instructions for common certificate management tasks, and Windows tooling is mentioned before or instead of Linux equivalents.
Recommendations:
  • For every mention of Windows tools (IIS, Certreq.exe), provide equivalent Linux/macOS instructions (e.g., using OpenSSL, certbot, or native Linux commands) and reference them with equal prominence.
  • In automation sections, always provide both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples, and consider listing Azure CLI (which is cross-platform) first.
  • Where screenshots or UI steps are shown, clarify if there are OS-specific differences, or note that the steps are OS-agnostic.
  • Add explicit guidance for Linux and macOS users for certificate generation, export, and upload, including common command-line workflows.
  • In FAQ and troubleshooting, address Linux-specific scenarios (e.g., trusted root store management in Linux containers) where relevant.
