Summary
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific tools and patterns (e.g., RDP, DPAPI, 'cmd.exe') are mentioned before their Linux equivalents, and several code examples default to Windows-centric commands. While Linux is supported and examples are present, Windows scenarios and terminology are often introduced first, and some sections (e.g., secrets management) reference Windows-only technologies without Linux alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Linux and macOS examples are presented alongside Windows examples, ideally in parallel or with equal prominence.
  • When mentioning Windows tools (e.g., DPAPI, RDP), immediately provide Linux/macOS equivalents (e.g., GnuPG, SSH, xrdp) and link to relevant documentation.
  • Use platform-neutral commands in code samples where possible, or provide both Windows and Linux command-line examples (e.g., 'echo hello world' via 'cmd.exe' and '/bin/bash').
  • Add explicit Linux/macOS instructions for secrets management and file sharing, not just Windows-specific solutions.
  • Avoid using Windows terminology as the default (e.g., 'cmd.exe') in generic examples; clarify platform differences.
