Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing only PowerShell commands and examples for certificate management, referencing Windows-specific certificate stores (e.g., Cert:\LocalMachine\Root), and explicitly stating that private client certificates are only supported from custom code in Windows code apps. There are no Linux or cross-platform command-line examples, and Linux scenarios are not addressed.
Recommendations:
- Include equivalent Linux/Bash/OpenSSL commands for generating and exporting certificates, alongside the PowerShell examples.
- Clarify support for Linux-based App Service apps, and provide guidance or alternatives for Linux scenarios.
- Reference Linux certificate store locations and how to manage certificates on Linux-based workers, if supported.
- Avoid language that implies Windows is the default or only supported platform unless it is a strict technical limitation; if so, clearly state the limitation and provide alternatives or workarounds for Linux users.
- Add a section or callout explicitly addressing Linux support and any differences in certificate handling.
