Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas. The per-app private client certificate method is explicitly limited to Windows code apps, with no Linux equivalent or workaround described. All example commands for certificate verification and generation use PowerShell, and the Kudu console instructions are Windows-centric. There are no Linux shell or cross-platform examples for certificate management, verification, or generation in the private client certificate section. The documentation does acknowledge Linux support for the Root Certificate API, but practical examples and troubleshooting for Linux scenarios are missing.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Linux shell (bash, openssl) examples for certificate verification and generation, especially in the private client certificate section.
- Clarify whether there are any Linux-compatible alternatives for per-app root certificate configuration, or explicitly state the limitation.
- Include troubleshooting and verification steps for Linux apps (e.g., how to check trust store contents in Linux containers).
- Mention cross-platform tools and patterns where possible, not just Windows/PowerShell.
- If features are Windows-only, offer guidance or workarounds for Linux users, or link to relevant feature requests or roadmap items.
