Summary
The documentation page displays a moderate Windows bias. It references Windows-specific tools (WSUS, Windows Update server) for update management and does not mention Linux equivalents. The default update server is Windows-only, and no alternatives for Linux environments are provided. There are no explicit examples or instructions for Linux/macOS users, and the documentation assumes familiarity with Windows-centric infrastructure and terminology (e.g., Azure portal navigation, WSUS).
Recommendations
  • Include instructions or references for Linux/macOS users on how to manage updates (e.g., using local Linux update servers or alternative patching strategies).
  • Mention cross-platform certificate generation and management tools, not just those typically used in Windows environments.
  • Clarify that device management and initial setup can be performed from non-Windows systems, and provide any necessary steps or caveats for Linux/macOS users.
  • If possible, provide parity for update server configuration (e.g., support for Linux-based update servers or clarify limitations).
  • Avoid assuming Windows infrastructure (such as WSUS) is always present; offer alternatives or note requirements for non-Windows environments.
