Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing only PowerShell examples for cryptographic key and certificate generation, referencing Windows-specific tools (e.g., New-SelfSignedCertificate), and omitting equivalent Linux/macOS commands or guidance. All code snippets for key/certificate generation assume a Windows environment, and there is no mention of cross-platform alternatives or ordering that gives Linux parity.
Recommendations:
- For every PowerShell example (e.g., generating a symmetric key or self-signed certificate), provide equivalent commands for Linux/macOS, such as using OpenSSL or relevant shell commands.
- Explicitly mention that the steps can be performed on non-Windows platforms, and provide links or references to cross-platform tooling.
- When introducing tooling or code snippets, present both Windows and Linux/macOS options together, or alternate the order to avoid always listing Windows first.
- Add a section or note on cross-platform considerations, including any differences in file paths, certificate stores, or command-line utilities.
- Where possible, use language-neutral or platform-neutral pseudocode for generic steps, and only provide platform-specific details as needed.
