Summary:
The documentation exclusively describes certificate export using Windows tools (Certificate Manager, PowerShell), with detailed step-by-step instructions and screenshots for the Windows GUI. There are no Linux or cross-platform command-line examples, nor are alternative tools (like OpenSSL) mentioned. The only referenced automation is via PowerShell, and the 'Next steps' section links to a PowerShell-specific guide. This creates a strong Windows bias and leaves Linux users without guidance.
Recommendations:
- Add equivalent instructions for exporting certificates using OpenSSL or other standard Linux tools.
- Provide command-line examples for both Windows (certutil, PowerShell) and Linux/macOS (OpenSSL).
- Include screenshots or terminal output for Linux workflows where appropriate.
- Mention cross-platform tools early in the documentation, not just Windows-specific ones.
- In the 'Next steps' section, link to Linux and cross-platform guides in addition to PowerShell.
