Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas: troubleshooting and cluster validation steps are provided only with PowerShell and Windows command prompt examples, with no equivalent Linux/bash commands. The use of 'Run Visual Studio Code as administrator' and references to Windows-specific ports and tools (e.g., SMB file share, PowerShell scripts) further reinforce a Windows-centric approach. Linux or cross-platform alternatives are not mentioned or are missing in key operational and troubleshooting sections.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/bash equivalents for all PowerShell and Windows command prompt commands, especially for kubectl, helm, and az CLI usage.
  • Include instructions for running Visual Studio Code and required commands on Linux/macOS, not just Windows (e.g., clarify 'run as administrator' for non-Windows platforms).
  • Mention and provide guidance for using NFS or other Linux-friendly file share options alongside SMB, or clarify SMB support on Linux.
  • Ensure troubleshooting scripts and instructions (such as troubleshoot.ps1) have cross-platform alternatives (e.g., bash scripts) or note their compatibility.
  • When referencing tools (e.g., PowerShell, Windows command prompt), always provide parity with bash/zsh or other common Linux shells.
  • Review all screenshots and UI instructions to ensure they are not exclusively Windows-centric, or provide Linux/macOS equivalents where applicable.
