Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows, providing only Windows PowerShell examples and instructions for certificate creation. There are no Linux or cross-platform alternatives mentioned, and all tooling and workflows assume a Windows environment. The use of Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, Cert:\ store) is exclusive, and Linux users are not given guidance or parity in the documentation.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent Linux examples using OpenSSL for certificate creation, including step-by-step commands.
- Mention cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, OpenSSL) and provide guidance for both Windows and Linux users.
- Clearly indicate which steps are Windows-specific and offer alternative instructions for Linux/macOS environments.
- Include a section or note at the start highlighting cross-platform options and linking to relevant Linux/macOS documentation.
- Avoid assuming the user is on Windows; use neutral language and provide parallel workflows where possible.
