Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias primarily in the certificate creation section, where only PowerShell is mentioned as a method for preparing a self-signed certificate. There are no Linux or cross-platform alternatives (such as OpenSSL) provided for certificate generation, and no Linux command-line examples are present. The rest of the documentation is largely platform-neutral, focusing on Azure portal steps and XML configuration, but the omission of Linux tooling for a key security step is a notable gap.
Recommendations:
- Add Linux and cross-platform instructions for creating self-signed certificates, such as using OpenSSL, alongside the PowerShell example.
- Explicitly mention that certificate generation can be performed on any OS, and provide equivalent commands for macOS and Linux.
- Wherever PowerShell or Windows-specific tooling is referenced, provide a parallel example for Linux/macOS users.
- Consider including a table or section summarizing certificate creation options for Windows, Linux, and macOS, with links to official documentation for each.
