Summary:
The documentation exhibits a clear Windows bias. It explicitly requires a Windows PC and a Windows Administrator account, lists PowerShell as a required tool, and references Windows-specific technologies (e.g., WinRM, Windows Server Failover Clustering). There are no Linux or cross-platform alternatives provided for key steps, and Linux equivalents for tools and commands are not mentioned. The documentation assumes a Windows environment throughout, which may exclude or inconvenience users on Linux or macOS.
Recommendations:
- Remove the explicit requirement for a Windows PC and Windows Administrator account unless absolutely necessary. If Windows is required for specific steps, clearly explain why and provide alternatives where possible.
- For each tool (Azure CLI, PowerShell, kubectl), provide installation and usage instructions for Linux and macOS, not just Windows.
- Where PowerShell or WinRM is referenced, include equivalent instructions for Bash/SSH on Linux/macOS, or clarify if these steps can be completed using cross-platform tools.
- When referencing Windows-specific technologies (e.g., Windows Server Failover Clustering, cloud witness), indicate whether Linux-based alternatives are supported or provide guidance for non-Windows environments.
- Ensure all command-line examples are provided for both Windows (PowerShell/CMD) and Linux/macOS (Bash), or use cross-platform syntax where possible.
- Review all prerequisite and setup steps to ensure Linux users can follow the documentation without needing to switch to a Windows machine.
