Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a clear Windows bias. All examples and procedures for configuring AD FS are based on Windows tools such as Server Manager, AD FS Management snap-in, Event Viewer, and PowerShell cmdlets. There are no references to Linux equivalents, nor any guidance for performing similar tasks on non-Windows platforms. Troubleshooting steps and AD FS management are exclusively described using Windows GUI and command-line tools, with no mention of cross-platform or Linux-compatible alternatives.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state that AD FS is a Windows-only service, but clarify any Azure AD B2C steps that are platform-agnostic.
- Where possible, provide guidance for SAML identity provider integration using open-source or Linux-based SAML providers (e.g., Shibboleth, SimpleSAMLphp) alongside AD FS.
- Include troubleshooting steps for SAML integration that are not dependent on Windows tools, such as using SAML-tracer browser extensions, curl, or openssl for certificate inspection.
- If PowerShell is required, mention alternatives for scripting on Linux (e.g., PowerShell Core, Bash scripts) and clarify which steps are strictly Windows-only.
- Add notes or links for users who may be running Azure AD B2C integration from non-Windows environments, explaining what parts of the process are platform-dependent.
