Summary
The documentation is heavily Windows-centric: all certificate export steps use Windows GUI tools (Certificate Manager, Certificate Export Wizard), with screenshots and instructions for Windows only. PowerShell and Windows-specific paths are referenced, while Linux equivalents (e.g., openssl commands, file locations) are missing. Only in the final concatenation step is a Linux command shown, and even there, the Windows command is listed first.
Recommendations
- Add step-by-step instructions for exporting certificates using Linux tools such as openssl, including commands for extracting public certificates and CA chains.
- Include screenshots or terminal output examples for Linux workflows.
- Present Linux and Windows instructions in parallel, or clearly separate them, rather than listing Windows first.
- Reference Linux certificate storage locations and management tools (e.g., /etc/ssl/certs, update-ca-certificates).
- Avoid assuming GUI access; provide CLI alternatives for both platforms.
