Summary
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias. It references Windows-specific tools (such as Azure PowerShell and Windows Server Update Services) and includes screenshots showing certificate downloads in Windows File Explorer. There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform command-line examples for certificate creation, management, or installation, and no mention of Linux tools or workflows. The guidance for certificate conversion and installation is generic, but the only concrete tool references are Windows-centric. The order of tool recommendations (PowerShell before Readiness Checker) also subtly prioritizes Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit Linux and macOS examples for certificate creation, management, and installation (e.g., using OpenSSL or Linux CLI tools).
  • Include screenshots or instructions for downloading and handling certificates on Linux and macOS systems, not just Windows File Explorer.
  • Mention cross-platform tools (such as OpenSSL) alongside or before Windows-specific tools like Azure PowerShell.
  • Clarify that the procedures are applicable to all supported client OSes, and add notes or links to platform-specific instructions where workflows differ.
  • When referencing tools for certificate creation, list cross-platform options first or in parallel with Windows tools.
