Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. All prerequisites, installation steps, and command-line examples assume Windows Server as the operating system, with no mention of Linux or macOS support. Windows-specific tools (e.g., PowerShell, reg.exe, cspsconfigtool.exe, Control Panel) are referenced exclusively, and all example commands are for Windows. There are no Linux equivalents, nor any guidance for non-Windows users, making the documentation inaccessible for those attempting to use Linux or macOS as the configuration server platform.
Recommendations
  • Clarify whether Linux/macOS are supported as configuration server platforms. If not, state this explicitly in prerequisites.
  • If Linux is supported, provide equivalent installation, registration, and management instructions for Linux (e.g., shell commands, systemd/service management, file paths).
  • Include Linux/macOS-specific troubleshooting steps and common issues.
  • Where PowerShell is used, offer Bash or shell alternatives for Linux.
  • Reference Linux tools (e.g., systemctl, cron, package managers) where appropriate.
  • If only Windows is supported, add a prominent note at the top of the documentation to prevent confusion for non-Windows users.
