Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias by providing only PowerShell scripts and commands for key setup steps (e.g., reply URL encoding, running the app launcher, setting secrets), and by referencing Windows-centric tools and patterns (PowerShell, dotnet user-secrets) without Linux or cross-platform alternatives. There are no Bash or Linux shell equivalents, nor any mention of how to perform these steps on Linux or macOS. The examples and instructions assume a Windows environment, potentially excluding or confusing Linux users.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Bash/Linux shell scripts for reply URL encoding and other scripting steps.
- Explicitly mention cross-platform compatibility for .NET commands and clarify any OS-specific requirements.
- Include instructions for installing and running the SMART on FHIR app launcher on Linux/macOS, including any necessary environment setup.
- Reference Linux tools (e.g., curl, openssl) where appropriate, and offer alternative commands for common tasks.
- Add notes or sections highlighting differences or considerations for Linux/macOS users, especially for authentication, file paths, and permissions.
