Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. All command-line examples use Windows PowerShell, Windows paths, and Windows-specific tools (e.g., certutil.exe, Notepad, Windows Explorer). There are no Linux/macOS equivalents or instructions for certificate conversion, hosts file editing, or Python/CLI installation. The workflow and troubleshooting steps are written from a Windows perspective, making it challenging for Linux/macOS users to follow without significant adaptation.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for all command-line instructions, including certificate conversion (e.g., using openssl), environment variable setting (export), and file paths.
  • Include instructions for editing the hosts file on Linux/macOS (e.g., using nano/vim and /etc/hosts).
  • Show how to install Azure CLI and Python on Linux/macOS, with sample outputs from bash/zsh terminals.
  • Replace or supplement Windows-specific tools (certutil.exe, Notepad) with cross-platform alternatives (openssl, nano/vim).
  • Present examples for both platforms, or at least alternate between them, rather than exclusively using Windows/PowerShell.
  • Explicitly state platform requirements or limitations if any steps are Windows-only.
