Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing PowerShell-based examples for password expiry configuration, referencing Windows-centric tools (PowerShell modules), and omitting equivalent Linux/macOS command-line instructions. All procedural steps involving command-line interaction are shown using PowerShell, with no mention of alternatives such as Bash, curl, or cross-platform CLI tools. This may hinder Linux or macOS administrators from easily following the instructions.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent examples using cross-platform tools such as Azure CLI, Microsoft Graph API via curl, or Bash scripts.
- Explicitly mention that PowerShell Core is available on Linux/macOS, or provide installation instructions for non-Windows platforms.
- Reorder or supplement command-line sections to present cross-platform approaches before or alongside Windows/PowerShell methods.
- Include notes or links to documentation for Linux/macOS users, clarifying how to perform the same operations outside of Windows environments.
- Audit future documentation for command-line instructions to ensure parity between Windows and non-Windows platforms.
