Summary
The documentation page is generally cross-platform, with most examples using OpenSSL, Azure CLI, and kubectl, which are available on Linux, macOS, and Windows. However, in the section on base64 encoding, the Linux command is presented first, but Windows users are directed to use certutil, a Windows-specific tool, with additional manual steps and Windows command-line syntax. No PowerShell examples are given, but the only OS-specific tool mentioned is for Windows, and it is described after the Linux method.
Recommendations
  • Provide PowerShell examples for base64 encoding on Windows, as PowerShell is available on both Windows and Linux.
  • Mention cross-platform alternatives to certutil, such as using OpenSSL or PowerShell's [Convert]::ToBase64String(), to avoid reliance on Windows-only tools.
  • Clarify that the Azure CLI and kubectl commands work identically on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • Consider listing both Linux and Windows methods side-by-side for encoding, rather than presenting Linux first and Windows as an afterthought.
