Summary
The documentation provides both Linux and Windows instructions for base64 encoding, but the Windows-specific tool (certutil) is mentioned separately and in detail, including extra steps for output cleanup. The Linux method is presented first, but the Windows method receives more explanation and troubleshooting. No PowerShell examples are present, and the majority of commands (openssl, kubectl, az CLI) are cross-platform. However, Windows users are given additional guidance, which may suggest a slight Windows bias in tooling support.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent troubleshooting and cleanup steps for Linux base64 output, if needed, to match the detail given for Windows.
  • Mention alternative Linux tools for base64 encoding/decoding (e.g., openssl base64, xxd) to match the Windows certutil coverage.
  • Clarify that all CLI commands (az, kubectl, openssl) work on both Windows and Linux, and provide explicit cross-platform notes where relevant.
  • If additional Windows-specific steps are given, ensure Linux/macOS equivalents are also described for parity.
  • Consider grouping base64 encoding instructions together, with clear cross-platform alternatives, rather than separating Windows and Linux.
