Summary
The documentation page exhibits a notable Windows bias. Troubleshooting steps and examples frequently use Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, certlm.msc, netstat via cmd) and commands, with little or no equivalent Linux/macOS guidance. PowerShell commands are shown for backend health checks and network troubleshooting, and Windows GUI tools are referenced for certificate inspection. Linux alternatives are only briefly mentioned in a few places (e.g., OpenSSL for certificates), and are not provided for most command-line or GUI steps. Windows methods are often described first or exclusively.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for all PowerShell and Windows GUI steps (e.g., use Azure CLI, OpenSSL, netstat, and certificate management commands).
- Include Linux/macOS examples for backend health checks, network troubleshooting, and certificate inspection.
- Present cross-platform instructions in parallel, or clearly indicate which steps apply to which OS.
- Reference Azure CLI and REST API usage equally alongside PowerShell, and provide sample outputs for each.
- Avoid assuming Windows as the default environment; clarify when instructions are OS-specific.
