Summary
The documentation provides certificate generation examples exclusively using Windows PowerShell, with explicit instructions for Windows users and no equivalent Linux or macOS command-line examples. The installation note for the step CLI mentions Windows specifically, and all sample commands are presented in PowerShell syntax, omitting bash or shell alternatives. This creates a Windows-centric bias and may hinder Linux users from following the guide seamlessly.
Recommendations
- Add Linux and macOS command-line examples using bash/zsh for certificate generation with step CLI.
- Provide cross-platform installation instructions for step CLI, including package manager commands for Linux (e.g., apt, yum, brew).
- Present command examples in a platform-neutral way, or show both PowerShell and bash syntax side-by-side.
- Avoid language such as 'in Windows PowerShell, run...' unless also providing equivalent instructions for other platforms.
- Explicitly state that the steps are applicable to all major OSes and highlight any platform-specific differences.
