Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. All command-line examples use PowerShell, and certificate management instructions rely on Windows-specific tools (MMC snap-in, Windows certificate stores, and Windows service accounts). There are no examples or guidance for Linux systems, and all terminology and screenshots are Windows-centric.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux command-line examples (e.g., using openssl, hostname, or certbot for certificate generation and management).
  • Include instructions for installing and trusting certificates on Linux (e.g., using update-ca-certificates or placing certs in /etc/ssl/certs).
  • Mention Linux-compatible integration runtime options, if available, or clarify Windows-only support.
  • Add screenshots or terminal output from Linux environments where applicable.
  • Use cross-platform terminology where possible (e.g., 'machine' instead of 'Local Machine', 'certificate store' instead of 'Personal').
