Summary
The documentation page exhibits mild Windows bias in the certificate generation section, where instructions and command examples are presented using Windows-centric terminology (e.g., opening a command prompt with Win+R and using %USERPROFILE%), and all command examples are shown in PowerShell syntax. There are no explicit Linux/macOS instructions or examples for certificate generation, and no mention of Linux/macOS-specific considerations for file paths or terminal usage. However, the rest of the guide (Azure Portal usage, MQTTX app) is cross-platform and does not favor Windows.
Recommendations
- Add explicit Linux/macOS instructions for installing and using the step CLI, including terminal commands and file path conventions.
- Provide bash/zsh command examples alongside PowerShell, or use platform-agnostic syntax where possible.
- Clarify that the step CLI and MQTTX app are cross-platform, and link to installation guides for all major OSes.
- Avoid Windows-specific terminology (e.g., Win+R, %USERPROFILE%) or provide equivalent instructions for other platforms.
