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. Linux users are not given guidance or parity in the certificate creation process.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent certificate creation instructions and examples for Linux environments, using tools such as OpenSSL.
- Include a section that explains how to generate certificates on Linux/macOS, covering both command-line steps and any relevant Azure CLI options.
- Mention cross-platform tools (e.g., OpenSSL, Azure CLI) before or alongside Windows-specific tools to ensure parity.
- Clarify in the prerequisites or introduction that the documented method is Windows-specific, and link to Linux/macOS guidance if available.
- Where possible, use platform-agnostic language and workflows, or clearly separate instructions for each supported OS.
