Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias, especially in sections related to certificate creation and key generation. All code examples for creating self-signed certificates and random signing/encryption keys use PowerShell, a Windows-centric tool. There are no equivalent Linux/macOS commands (e.g., OpenSSL, bash) provided, and Windows tools are mentioned exclusively and first. This creates friction for Linux/macOS users who cannot directly follow the instructions without seeking alternative methods.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for certificate creation (e.g., OpenSSL commands).
  • Include bash or Python examples for random string/key generation.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform alternatives and link to relevant external documentation.
  • Order examples so that Windows and Linux/macOS instructions are presented side-by-side or in parallel sections.
  • Clarify which steps are platform-specific and offer guidance for non-Windows environments.
