Summary
The documentation exclusively provides step-by-step instructions and screenshots for exporting certificates using Windows Certificate Manager, a Windows-only tool. There are no examples or guidance for performing equivalent tasks on Linux or macOS. The only command-line reference is to PowerShell/certmgr, and the 'Next steps' section links to a PowerShell-specific guide. Linux tools and workflows are not mentioned or demonstrated.
Recommendations
- Add parallel instructions for exporting certificates using common Linux tools such as openssl, including command-line examples for exporting public keys and root certificates in Base-64 encoded X.509 (.CER) format.
- Include screenshots or terminal output from Linux environments to illustrate the process.
- Mention Linux and macOS as supported platforms explicitly, and provide guidance for users on those systems.
- Balance references to Windows tools by listing Linux and cross-platform alternatives (e.g., openssl, certutil).
- Update the 'Next steps' section to include links to Linux and cross-platform guides, not just PowerShell.
