Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias in several ways: Windows instructions, examples, and tools (such as PowerShell and Windows environment variable configuration) are consistently presented before their Linux equivalents. PowerShell-based examples dominate, and Windows-specific tools and paths are referenced in detail, while Linux instructions are often less detailed or presented after Windows. Some sections (e.g., credential asset permissions, runbook authentication examples) lack Linux-specific examples or omit equivalent Linux details.
Recommendations:
- Alternate the order of Windows and Linux sections/examples, or present them in parallel tabs to give equal prominence.
- Provide Linux-specific code examples wherever PowerShell/Windows examples are given (e.g., use Bash or Python for Linux runbooks).
- Include detailed Linux instructions for tasks like environment variable setup, credential asset permissions, and runbook authentication, matching the depth of Windows guidance.
- Where Windows tools or paths are referenced (e.g., C:\ paths, Control Panel), provide the Linux equivalents (e.g., /etc/environment, relevant Linux commands).
- Add Linux troubleshooting tips and references alongside Windows event log and path information.
- Where PowerShell is the only example, consider including a Python or Bash example for Linux users.
