Summary
The documentation exclusively provides certificate export instructions using Windows Certificate Manager and PowerShell, with step-by-step screenshots and references to Windows-specific tools and UI. There are no examples or guidance for performing equivalent tasks on Linux or macOS, nor are cross-platform CLI tools (such as OpenSSL) mentioned. The documentation assumes a Windows environment throughout.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent instructions for exporting certificates using OpenSSL on Linux and macOS, including CLI commands and example outputs.
- Include screenshots or terminal output for Linux-based workflows where appropriate.
- Mention cross-platform tools (e.g., OpenSSL, certtool) alongside Windows Certificate Manager, and clarify that the process can be performed on any OS.
- Provide parity in guidance order: present Windows and Linux/macOS options side-by-side or in parallel sections.
- Update 'Next steps' to reference cross-platform configuration guides, not only PowerShell.
