Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias in several ways: Windows-centric tools such as Azure PowerShell are listed among the main options for creating pipelines, with no mention of Linux-specific command-line tools or shell scripting. The only example for converting certificates to base64 references a PowerShell-based method and links to a PowerShell-focused blog, with no alternative for Linux (e.g., using OpenSSL). There are no Linux shell or CLI examples, and Windows tools/patterns are mentioned before or instead of Linux equivalents throughout the page.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux shell (bash) and OpenSSL examples for certificate conversion, alongside the PowerShell method.
  • Include references to cross-platform CLI tools (e.g., Azure CLI) and provide examples for both Windows and Linux environments.
  • Ensure that tutorials and quickstarts mention Linux compatibility and provide parity in step-by-step instructions for Linux users.
  • Explicitly state platform requirements or limitations where relevant, and offer guidance for Linux users where Windows-specific tools are referenced.
  • Balance the order of tool presentation so that Windows and Linux options are listed together, or alternate which is mentioned first.
