Summary
The documentation shows some Windows bias, particularly in the sections related to uploading certificates to Application Gateway and configuring web servers. Azure PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is featured with detailed sample code, while equivalent Azure CLI (cross-platform) instructions are missing. Windows tools and patterns (such as referencing IIS and the Windows hosts file) are mentioned first or exclusively in some places. There is also a lack of explicit Linux-oriented examples for some steps, such as uploading certificates using Azure CLI or configuring trusted root certificates on Linux systems.
Recommendations
- Provide Azure CLI examples alongside or before Azure PowerShell for certificate upload and Application Gateway configuration, as Azure CLI is cross-platform.
- Include explicit instructions or links for adding root certificates to trusted stores on Linux (e.g., update-ca-certificates on Ubuntu) as well as Windows.
- When referencing web server configuration, balance IIS (Windows) with Apache/NGINX (Linux) by giving equal prominence and detail.
- When mentioning editing the hosts file, include Linux/MacOS paths (e.g., /etc/hosts) and instructions, not just Windows.
- Review the order of tool and platform mentions to avoid always listing Windows first.
- Add notes or examples for Linux users wherever platform-specific steps are required.
