Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. It assumes the user is on a Windows client, provides only Windows PowerShell command-line examples, and uses Windows file paths (e.g., C:\Users\user). There are no equivalent Linux/macOS instructions, shell commands, or file path examples. Windows-specific tools and commands (such as New-HcsKubernetesNamespace) are referenced without Linux alternatives, and the documentation repeatedly refers to using a Windows client as the primary scenario.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel Linux/macOS instructions and examples for all steps, including shell command syntax and file paths (e.g., ~/user/.kube).
  • Include Linux/macOS command-line output samples alongside PowerShell examples.
  • Clarify which steps or tools are Windows-only and offer Linux/macOS alternatives where possible.
  • Reference cross-platform tools and commands first, or at least equally, rather than prioritizing Windows-specific tools.
  • Explicitly state any limitations or differences for non-Windows clients early in the prerequisites section.
  • Where Windows PowerShell commands are used (e.g., New-HcsKubernetesNamespace), document if/how these can be run from Linux/macOS, or provide REST API/CLI alternatives.
