Summary
The documentation provides both Linux and Windows examples for setting environment variables, but consistently uses PowerShell for interactive prompts and sensitive variable input, with no equivalent Linux shell examples (e.g., 'read -s' in bash). Windows-specific tools like Export-PfxCertificate are referenced for certificate export, with no Linux alternatives mentioned. In some sections, Windows/PowerShell commands are shown first or exclusively, and the use of PowerShell is assumed for secure input, creating friction for Linux/macOS users.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux/macOS shell examples for interactive variable input (e.g., using 'read -s' in bash for secrets).
  • Include Linux/macOS alternatives for certificate export (e.g., using 'openssl' to export/create .PFX/.PEM files).
  • Ensure that both Linux and Windows examples are presented side-by-side or in parallel tabs, and avoid showing Windows/PowerShell commands first or exclusively.
  • Clarify cross-platform differences in secret storage and provide guidance for Linux users where features (like secret stores) may differ.
  • Review all references to Windows tools and add Linux/macOS equivalents or links to relevant documentation.
