Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong bias toward Windows and PowerShell usage. All CLI examples for certificate management use PowerShell cmdlets, with no mention of Linux/macOS shell equivalents or cross-platform Azure CLI commands. Windows-specific tools and patterns (e.g., PowerShell, .pfx files, Windows cryptographic provider requirements) are referenced exclusively or first. There are no bash, Azure CLI, or Linux-native certificate management examples, making it difficult for Linux/macOS users to follow the instructions without resorting to PowerShell on those platforms.
Recommendations
- Add Azure CLI examples for certificate management tasks, such as uploading and retrieving certificates.
- Provide bash or shell script examples for Linux/macOS users, especially for certificate file handling and base64 encoding.
- Clarify cross-platform compatibility of PowerShell cmdlets (e.g., whether they work on PowerShell Core on Linux/macOS).
- Mention Linux/macOS certificate provider requirements or alternatives to the 'Microsoft Enhanced RSA and AES Cryptographic Provider'.
- Reorder examples so that cross-platform or platform-neutral approaches (e.g., Azure CLI, REST API) are presented before or alongside PowerShell examples.
