Summary
The documentation page exhibits several instances of Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, Chocolatey) are used for key installation steps, such as installing kubectl and Helm, with no Linux/macOS alternatives provided. PowerShell commands (e.g., Set-ExecutionPolicy) are referenced for script execution and environment setup, and Windows SMB file share setup is described in detail before mentioning Azure Files. The use of Windows tools and patterns is presented as the default, and Linux/macOS users must infer or research their own equivalents. Linux-specific instructions (e.g., mounting SMB shares, using apt-get) are only briefly mentioned and lack the same depth as Windows steps.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit Linux/macOS installation instructions for kubectl and Helm (e.g., using apt, yum, brew, or official binaries).
  • Include Linux/macOS alternatives for PowerShell commands, such as using chmod for script execution permissions.
  • Offer parity in SMB file share setup instructions for Linux (e.g., using Samba server configuration, mounting instructions, and security considerations).
  • When referencing scripts, clarify how to run them on Linux/macOS, including prerequisites and execution policies.
  • Present cross-platform examples side-by-side or indicate platform-specific steps clearly.
  • Avoid assuming Chocolatey or PowerShell is available; mention platform-agnostic installation methods first.
