Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing PowerShell as a primary method for creating Key Vaults, omitting equivalent Linux/CLI examples. The certificate format required is .PFX, which is most commonly associated with Windows environments. Deployment options prioritize Windows-centric tools (PowerShell, Visual Studio) and do not provide parity for Linux users (e.g., Azure CLI, Bash scripts). There are no examples or instructions for Linux users on how to generate, upload, or manage certificates.
Recommendations
- Include Azure CLI examples alongside PowerShell for creating and managing Key Vaults and certificates.
- Provide instructions or references for generating .PFX certificates on Linux (e.g., using OpenSSL).
- List Linux-friendly deployment options (e.g., Bash, Azure CLI) alongside or before Windows tools.
- Add explicit Linux/macOS command-line examples for uploading and referencing certificates.
- Clarify that .PFX files can be generated and used cross-platform, and provide guidance for non-Windows environments.
