Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. It prioritizes .NET/ASP.NET (Windows-centric) examples, uses Windows-specific terminology (such as 'App Service' and 'X-ARR-ClientCert'), and provides detailed C#/.NET code samples before other languages. There is no explicit mention or example of using Linux-native tools (such as OpenSSL or curl) for certificate handling, nor are there shell or Bash command-line examples. The overall structure and sample order suggest a Windows-first approach, with Linux parity present but not foregrounded.
Recommendations:
- Add Linux/Bash command-line examples for enabling client certificates (e.g., using Azure CLI from Bash, not just Cloud Shell).
- Include OpenSSL-based examples for certificate inspection and validation, especially in the 'Access the client certificate' section.
- Provide parity in code sample ordering: alternate or rotate the order of language samples so that Linux-first stacks (Node.js, Python, Java) are not always after .NET.
- Explicitly mention Linux-native tools and patterns where relevant (e.g., using curl with client certificates for testing mutual TLS).
- Clarify that the Azure CLI and Bicep/ARM templates are cross-platform, and provide example shell environments for both Windows and Linux.
- Consider adding a troubleshooting section for common Linux client issues (e.g., curl or wget certificate errors).
