Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias primarily in the certificate creation section, where only PowerShell is mentioned as the method for preparing a self-signed certificate. There is no mention of Linux or cross-platform alternatives (such as OpenSSL) for certificate generation. The rest of the documentation is largely platform-neutral, focusing on Azure portal UI and XML configuration, but the lack of Linux/macOS command-line examples for certificate management is a notable omission.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions and examples for generating self-signed certificates using OpenSSL, which is available on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • Explicitly mention that certificate creation can be performed on any OS and provide links or steps for both PowerShell and OpenSSL.
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, clarify that it is one option and suggest alternatives for non-Windows users.
  • Review any referenced includes (such as active-directory-b2c-create-self-signed-certificate.md) to ensure Linux/macOS parity.
  • Consider adding a table or section comparing certificate creation methods across platforms.
