Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias primarily in the section describing how to generate a GUID for the 'id' attribute. It explicitly mentions the PowerShell New-GUID cmdlet as a method, without referencing Linux or cross-platform alternatives. No Linux shell or tool examples are provided, and the Windows/PowerShell method is mentioned first and exclusively. The rest of the documentation is platform-neutral, focusing on YAML, KQL, and Microsoft Sentinel concepts.
Recommendations
- Include Linux and cross-platform methods for generating a GUID, such as 'uuidgen' (available on most Linux distributions and macOS) or Python's uuid module.
- Present platform-agnostic or cross-platform options before or alongside Windows/PowerShell examples.
- Add explicit examples for Linux/macOS users, e.g., 'Run uuidgen in your terminal to generate a GUID.'
- Where possible, avoid referencing platform-specific tools unless necessary, or always provide equivalent alternatives.
