Summary
The documentation provides both Bash and PowerShell examples for generating the protected settings JSON file, but the PowerShell example is given equal prominence and uses Windows-specific syntax (echo, tr -d '\r'), which is not portable to Linux/macOS. The Bash example is listed first, but the presence of a dedicated PowerShell tab and Windows-centric command patterns may create friction for Linux/macOS users. No Linux-specific tools or patterns are missing, and all CLI commands are cross-platform, but the PowerShell example could be confusing for non-Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Clearly indicate which example is for Windows and which is for Linux/macOS, using tabbed sections labeled 'Windows (PowerShell)' and 'Linux/macOS (Bash)'.
  • Add a note clarifying that the PowerShell example is intended for Windows users, and the Bash example for Linux/macOS.
  • Consider providing a macOS-specific example if there are any platform-specific nuances.
  • Review the PowerShell example to ensure it does not introduce unnecessary complexity for Linux/macOS users (e.g., avoid using 'tr -d "\r"' unless needed).
  • Ensure that the Bash example is complete and works as expected on both Linux and macOS.
