Summary
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All command-line examples use PowerShell syntax and are shown from a Windows command prompt. Instructions for editing system files, installing certificates, and interacting with the device are written specifically for Windows (e.g., editing C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts, using the Certificate Import Wizard). There are no Linux/macOS equivalents or alternative instructions provided, and no bash or shell examples. Windows tools and paths are referenced exclusively, and the use of PowerShell cmdlets is pervasive throughout the guide.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel Linux/macOS instructions for all steps, including editing /etc/hosts, installing certificates (using update-ca-certificates or similar), and restarting Docker.
  • Include bash/shell command examples alongside PowerShell, especially for Docker and kubectl commands.
  • Replace or supplement PowerShell-specific cmdlets (e.g., Set-HcsKubernetesContainerRegistry) with REST API or cross-platform CLI alternatives, if available.
  • Show sample outputs from Linux/macOS terminals as well as Windows.
  • Explicitly state which steps are OS-specific and provide clear navigation for users on different platforms.
  • Reference Linux/macOS Docker installation guides in addition to Windows.
