Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing PowerShell for automation, referencing Windows-centric tools (such as Visual Studio and PowerShell cmdlets), and omitting Linux- or cross-platform command-line examples. The only explicit code example for generating a GUID uses PowerShell's New-Guid, with no mention of Linux or macOS alternatives. REST API usage is discussed, but the tooling and workflow examples are Windows-first, and there are no Bash, shell, or Linux-native tool examples provided.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux/macOS command-line examples for all PowerShell commands (e.g., show how to generate a GUID with uuidgen or openssl).
  • Include Bash/cURL command-line examples for REST API calls, not just references to PowerShell's Invoke-RestMethod.
  • Mention cross-platform editors and tools (such as VS Code, Postman, or httpie) alongside or before Windows-specific tools like Visual Studio.
  • Ensure that all screenshots and walkthroughs are not exclusively from Windows environments, or provide Linux/macOS equivalents where relevant.
  • Explicitly state that all steps can be performed from Linux/macOS, and provide links to relevant authentication and setup guides for those platforms.
