Summary
The documentation provides both Linux/macOS and Windows examples for ORAS CLI usage, but Windows examples are consistently presented after Linux/macOS. Windows-specific command syntax (cmd.exe) is included, but there is no PowerShell-specific example. The documentation references Docker Desktop (a Windows-centric tool) for credential storage, and mentions WSL2 (Windows Subsystem for Linux), which is a Windows-specific compatibility layer. However, Linux and macOS are generally well-represented, and most commands are shown for bash first. There are no missing Linux examples, but Windows tooling and patterns are referenced, and Windows-specific instructions are provided throughout.
Recommendations
  • Add PowerShell examples alongside cmd.exe for Windows users, as PowerShell is increasingly the default shell.
  • Clarify Docker credential store usage for Linux (e.g., pass or secretservice) and macOS (keychain), not just Docker Desktop.
  • Present Windows and Linux/macOS examples in parallel, rather than always listing Linux/macOS first.
  • Reduce reliance on WSL2 references; provide native Linux instructions where possible.
  • Explicitly mention Linux credential store alternatives and authentication flows, not just AD token and Docker Desktop.
  • Where Windows-specific tools or patterns are mentioned, provide equivalent Linux/macOS alternatives and links.
