Summary
The documentation provides both Linux and Windows methods for base64 encoding, but the Windows-specific tool (certutil) is mentioned separately and with more detailed instructions, including manual header removal and use of findstr. The Linux method is presented first and more succinctly. The rest of the documentation uses cross-platform tools (openssl, Azure CLI, kubectl) and does not show a strong overall Windows bias, but the Windows section is more elaborate and could be perceived as prioritized.
Recommendations
  • Provide equally detailed instructions for Linux base64 decoding and header removal, such as using 'sed' or 'awk', to match the Windows guidance.
  • Consider grouping the base64 encoding instructions together, clearly labeling them as 'Linux' and 'Windows' alternatives, to avoid implying priority.
  • Add a note that both Linux and Windows users can use OpenSSL and Azure CLI, and clarify any platform-specific differences where relevant.
  • If possible, provide PowerShell examples for certificate handling alongside bash equivalents, or vice versa, to ensure parity.
  • Review future documentation for similar patterns where Windows tools are given more space or detail than Linux equivalents.
