Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific concepts (like registry keys, Windows services, and file paths) are discussed in greater detail and often appear before Linux equivalents. There are extensive tables and examples for Windows registry tracking, but no comparable Linux configuration file or daemon tracking examples. Query and alerting examples focus on Windows paths and registry keys, with only a single Linux daemon example. The documentation also references Windows tools and patterns (e.g., c:\ paths, registry, Windows services) more frequently and in more depth than Linux equivalents.
Recommendations:
- Provide Linux-first or parallel Linux examples for all features, especially for configuration tracking (e.g., show how to track changes in /etc/passwd or /etc/ssh/sshd_config, or Linux service files).
- Include tables or lists of commonly tracked Linux configuration files and directories, similar to the detailed registry key table for Windows.
- Balance query and alerting examples by including Linux-centric scenarios (e.g., tracking changes to /etc/hosts, /etc/systemd/system/*.service, or package installations).
- When describing features, alternate the order of Windows and Linux examples, or present them side-by-side.
- Expand explanations of Linux daemon and package tracking to match the depth given to Windows services and registry.
- Avoid using only Windows-centric terminology (e.g., 'Windows services') without also mentioning Linux equivalents ('Linux daemons') in the same context.
