Summary
The documentation presents platform-specific examples for generating derived device keys in a tabbed format, but the Windows/PowerShell example is listed before the Linux/openssl example. The Windows/PowerShell example is more verbose and detailed, which may suggest a slight preference for Windows tooling and patterns. However, Linux parity is maintained with an openssl example, and the Azure CLI example is noted as cross-platform. There is no outright omission of Linux instructions, but the ordering and depth of Windows examples indicate mild Windows bias.
Recommendations
- List platform examples in alphabetical order (e.g., Azure CLI, CSharp, Linux, Windows) or place cross-platform tools first to avoid implicit prioritization.
- Ensure that Linux examples are as detailed and explanatory as Windows/PowerShell examples, including troubleshooting tips or common pitfalls.
- Explicitly state that all examples are equivalent and supported, and clarify cross-platform compatibility for each method.
- Consider adding a Python or Bash script example for Linux users who may not use openssl directly.
- Review other sections for similar ordering or depth disparities and standardize example presentation.
