Summary:
The documentation shows a moderate Windows bias. The only platform-specific examples for accessing the client certificate in application code are for ASP.NET Core and ASP.NET Web Forms, both of which are traditionally Windows-centric frameworks. The initial mention of how to access the client certificate property is for ASP.NET, with Linux/Unix-agnostic stacks (Node.js, Java, Python) following. There are no explicit Linux shell or configuration examples, and the document does not mention Linux-specific tools or patterns for certificate handling. The Azure CLI and Bicep/ARM examples are cross-platform, but the application code samples and the ordering of explanations favor Windows-first technologies.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit Linux/Unix shell (bash) examples for enabling client certificates using Azure CLI, including usage from a Linux terminal.
- Include examples for popular Linux web servers (e.g., Nginx, Apache) on how to forward client certificates to the application, especially for self-hosted scenarios.
- Provide parity in application code samples by including examples for popular Linux-first frameworks (e.g., FastAPI for Python, Spring Boot for Java, Express for Node.js) and clarify any OS-specific differences.
- Reorder the 'Access the client certificate' section to mention cross-platform approaches (e.g., via HTTP headers) before Windows-specific frameworks.
- Explicitly state that the Azure CLI and Bicep/ARM approaches are cross-platform and can be used from Linux, macOS, and Windows.
