Summary
The documentation demonstrates a notable Windows bias. Most configuration and onboarding examples use PowerShell scripts and cmdlets, with detailed step-by-step instructions for Windows. Linux enablement is described, but with less detail and often requires using Windows tools (PowerShell, WMF 5) to generate configurations for Linux machines. Native Linux tooling and workflows are minimally covered, and Linux-specific examples are less comprehensive.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux-first onboarding instructions that do not require a Windows machine or PowerShell/WMF 5 for Linux node enablement.
- Expand Linux sections with native Bash/shell examples for generating and applying metaconfigurations.
- Include parity in step-by-step guides for both Windows and Linux, ensuring Linux users can follow along without switching to Windows tools.
- Highlight Linux-specific tools and workflows (e.g., using Python scripts or shell commands) before or alongside Windows/PowerShell examples.
- Clarify when steps are Windows-only and offer equivalent Linux-native alternatives where possible.
