Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias, primarily through frequent references to Windows-centric tools and technologies (e.g., AD FS, Windows Server Active Directory, password protection for Windows Server, Windows Hello for Business) and a lack of Linux/macOS-specific examples or guidance. Windows tools and patterns are mentioned exclusively or before any cross-platform alternatives, and there are no explicit instructions or examples for Linux or macOS environments, especially for hybrid identity scenarios and passwordless authentication.
Recommendations
- Include examples and guidance for Linux and macOS environments, especially for hybrid identity setups and passwordless authentication.
- Mention cross-platform alternatives to Windows-specific tools (e.g., highlight FIDO2 keys for passwordless authentication on Linux/macOS, or provide links to relevant documentation).
- Clarify which features are available or relevant for non-Windows environments, and explicitly state any platform limitations.
- Provide parity in step-by-step instructions, ensuring that Linux/macOS administrators can follow along without needing Windows infrastructure.
- Add references to open standards and protocols (such as SAML, OAuth, FIDO2) that are supported across platforms.
