Summary:
The documentation provides both Linux and Windows instructions for configuring Tomcat data sources, but the Windows section is noticeably more detailed, with extensive PowerShell scripting and Windows-specific patterns (e.g., use of startup.cmd, configure.ps1, and %HOME% variables). The Windows instructions are longer, more explicit, and introduce Windows tools and patterns (PowerShell, CMD scripting) that have no direct Linux equivalent in the documentation. While Linux instructions are present and functional, the Windows approach is more thoroughly explained and uses Windows-native tools, which may disadvantage Linux users seeking parity.
Recommendations:
- Provide equally detailed, step-by-step Linux instructions for customizing Tomcat, including example shell scripts for startup automation, not just high-level descriptions.
- Offer Linux-native equivalents for Windows tools (e.g., show how to automate the server.xml transformation and Tomcat copying using Bash or shell scripts, not just mention 'startup script').
- Balance the length and depth of Linux and Windows sections to avoid the impression that Windows is the primary or preferred platform.
- Where PowerShell is used for Windows, provide Bash or shell script equivalents for Linux, including error handling and idempotency.
- Explicitly mention and link to Linux-specific tools or best practices for managing configuration files and environment variables.
