Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias, primarily in the section on creating self-signed certificates, where only a PowerShell-based approach is referenced (via an include), and no Linux/macOS alternatives (such as OpenSSL) are mentioned. The rest of the documentation is largely platform-neutral, focusing on Azure Portal UI and XML configuration, but the lack of cross-platform command-line examples for certificate creation may disadvantage Linux/macOS users.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions or examples for creating self-signed certificates on Linux/macOS using OpenSSL, alongside the existing PowerShell/Windows approach.
  • Wherever PowerShell or Windows-specific tools are referenced, provide equivalent bash/OpenSSL or cross-platform alternatives.
  • In sections that reference uploading or generating certificates, clarify that certificates can be created on any OS and provide links or steps for common Linux/macOS workflows.
  • Review all included snippets (such as the referenced PowerShell module include) to ensure Linux parity or add a note directing users to alternative methods if only Windows is covered.
  • Consider a short table or callout summarizing certificate creation options for Windows (PowerShell), Linux (OpenSSL), and macOS (OpenSSL/Keychain), with links to official documentation.
