Summary
The documentation page shows mild Windows bias, especially in the 'For testing purposes only' section, where PowerShell scripts are mentioned before Bash scripts for certificate generation. The referenced tooling for certificate management includes PowerShell scripts and Windows-centric instructions, and there is a tendency to mention Windows tools or patterns first. However, Linux alternatives (Bash scripts, OpenSSL) are present, and Azure CLI examples are cross-platform.
Recommendations
- Present Bash and PowerShell scripts equally, or mention Bash first to balance the order.
- Explicitly state cross-platform compatibility for all tools and scripts, and provide usage examples for both Windows and Linux.
- Where PowerShell is referenced, include equivalent Bash/Unix shell commands side-by-side.
- Ensure that links to tooling (e.g., certificate generation) highlight Linux and macOS support as clearly as Windows.
- Add more Linux-specific examples, such as using OpenSSL for certificate management, and clarify when a tool is Windows-only.
