Summary
The documentation demonstrates Windows bias by referencing NTLM authentication (a Windows-specific protocol) and linking to Windows documentation first when discussing backend authentication issues. IIS (a Windows web server) is mentioned and explained in detail before Nginx (a popular Linux web server), with configuration guidance and links provided for IIS but less detail for Nginx. There are no examples or troubleshooting steps using Linux tools or environments, and no mention of Linux-specific authentication mechanisms or troubleshooting patterns.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux-specific authentication scenarios (e.g., Kerberos, LDAP) and troubleshooting steps alongside NTLM.
  • Provide equivalent configuration and troubleshooting details for popular Linux web servers (e.g., Apache, Nginx) before or alongside IIS.
  • Add examples and links for Linux tools and commands (e.g., curl, journalctl, systemd logs) for troubleshooting.
  • Ensure that references to backend server configuration (timeouts, authentication) are presented in a cross-platform manner, not Windows-first.
  • Balance documentation by providing parity in detail and guidance for both Windows and Linux environments.
