Summary
The documentation exclusively uses Windows tools (Certificate Manager, PowerShell) for certificate export and management, with step-by-step instructions and screenshots for Windows. There are no examples or instructions for performing equivalent tasks on Linux or macOS, nor are cross-platform CLI tools (like OpenSSL) mentioned. The 'Next steps' section also references PowerShell specifically for further configuration.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent instructions for Linux and macOS using OpenSSL or other platform-agnostic CLI tools for exporting certificates.
- Include examples and screenshots for certificate export on Linux (e.g., using OpenSSL commands) and macOS (e.g., Keychain Access or OpenSSL).
- Mention cross-platform tools and provide guidance for users who do not have access to Windows environments.
- Reference Azure CLI and REST API methods for configuring Application Gateway, in addition to PowerShell.
- Reorganize examples so that Windows and Linux/macOS instructions are presented in parallel, or clarify that the steps apply to all platforms where possible.
