Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing Windows-specific tools (AD FS Management snap-in, Server Manager, Event Viewer), providing PowerShell commands for configuration, and omitting any mention of Linux equivalents or cross-platform alternatives. All administrative steps and troubleshooting are described using Windows UI and tooling, with no guidance for Linux-based AD FS deployments or command-line alternatives.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent instructions for managing AD FS using command-line tools (where possible) that are available on Linux, or clarify AD FS is Windows-only and suggest alternatives for Linux environments.
- Mention that AD FS is a Windows Server feature, and for Linux users, suggest SAML-compatible alternatives (e.g., Shibboleth, SimpleSAMLphp) and link to relevant integration guides.
- Include troubleshooting steps that can be performed via command-line (e.g., PowerShell Core, Windows Admin Center, or remote management tools) and clarify remote access options from non-Windows systems.
- Explicitly state platform requirements and limitations early in the documentation, so Linux administrators are aware of the Windows dependency.
- Where PowerShell is used, note if PowerShell Core (cross-platform) can be used, or provide REST API alternatives if available.
