Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing PowerShell-only command-line examples for certificate management, referencing Azure PowerShell and ARM templates, and omitting equivalent Azure CLI (cross-platform) or Bash examples. The troubleshooting steps and resolutions focus on Azure Portal and PowerShell, which are more familiar to Windows users, with no explicit guidance for Linux or non-Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Add Azure CLI (az) command examples alongside PowerShell for certificate upload and management, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux and macOS.
  • Where PowerShell scripts are shown, provide equivalent Bash/CLI scripts or commands.
  • When mentioning tools or automation (e.g., ARM templates, PowerShell), also reference cross-platform alternatives (e.g., Azure CLI, Terraform).
  • Explicitly state that all operations can be performed from Linux/macOS using Azure CLI, and link to relevant documentation.
  • Balance the order of presentation so that cross-platform tools (CLI) are mentioned before or alongside Windows-specific tools (PowerShell).
