Summary
The documentation is heavily Windows-centric, with all certificate export instructions and screenshots based on Windows GUI tools (Certificate Manager, Certificate Export Wizard). Linux equivalents (e.g., using OpenSSL or command-line tools) are not provided for the critical steps of exporting certificates. PowerShell and Windows-specific navigation are mentioned, while Linux/macOS users are only referenced in the final concatenation step, which provides a 'cat' command. This creates friction for non-Windows users attempting to follow the guide.
Recommendations
- Add step-by-step instructions for exporting certificates using OpenSSL or other common Linux/macOS tools.
- Include Linux/macOS screenshots or terminal output examples where appropriate.
- Present both Windows and Linux/macOS methods side-by-side, or clearly separate them in sections.
- Avoid referencing Windows tools (e.g., Certificate Manager, PowerShell) as the default or only method.
- Ensure parity in detail and clarity between Windows and Linux/macOS instructions.
