Summary:
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. Only Windows operating systems are listed as supported, and all software requirements (e.g., .NET Framework, BitLocker) are Windows-specific. Disk preparation instructions and examples exclusively use Windows PowerShell commands, with no mention of Linux or macOS alternatives. There is no guidance for users on non-Windows platforms, nor are cross-platform tools or workflows discussed.
Recommendations:
- Clearly state if the Import/Export tool is Windows-only, and if so, explain the rationale and any planned Linux/macOS support.
- If possible, provide equivalent instructions and supported tools for Linux (e.g., using Linux-native disk preparation and encryption tools such as cryptsetup or LUKS).
- Include Linux/macOS examples for checking disk sector size (e.g., using 'lsblk', 'fdisk -l', or 'blockdev --getss').
- Mention cross-platform alternatives to BitLocker and .NET Framework, or clarify their necessity.
- If Linux is not supported, add a prominent note at the top of the page to inform users and suggest workarounds or alternatives for non-Windows environments.
