Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a significant Windows bias. All configuration steps for AD FS rely exclusively on Windows-specific tools such as Server Manager, AD FS Management snap-in, and PowerShell cmdlets. Troubleshooting instructions reference Windows Event Viewer only. There are no Linux/macOS equivalents, nor any mention of cross-platform alternatives for managing AD FS or viewing logs. Windows tools and patterns are presented as the only option, with no parity for Linux or macOS users.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state that AD FS is a Windows-only technology and clarify platform requirements at the top of the document.
- Where possible, mention that all AD FS management and troubleshooting steps require Windows Server and are not available on Linux/macOS.
- If any cross-platform SAML identity providers are supported, provide equivalent instructions or links for those platforms.
- For certificate creation and management, include Linux/macOS command-line examples (e.g., using OpenSSL) alongside Windows instructions.
- For troubleshooting, suggest alternative log inspection methods if supported by Azure AD B2C or SAML providers on non-Windows platforms.
