Summary
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Windows is referenced first and most frequently in prerequisites, sample instructions, and tooling. Many steps explicitly mention using a Windows command prompt, and some certificate generation instructions only reference Windows or Git Bash. There is a lack of explicit Linux/macOS instructions or parity in several places, such as command-line usage, certificate generation, and environment setup. While the SDKs themselves are cross-platform, the guidance and examples are Windows-centric, creating friction for Linux/macOS users.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux/macOS instructions and examples for all SDKs, including terminal commands and environment setup.
  • When referencing command prompts, clarify that Bash/zsh/Terminal can be used on Linux/macOS and provide equivalent commands.
  • For certificate generation, provide Linux/macOS alternatives (e.g., OpenSSL commands, shell scripts) and avoid referencing only Windows or Git Bash.
  • Ensure that prerequisites and sample code instructions do not assume a Windows environment; mention cross-platform compatibility and provide OS-specific notes where needed.
  • When listing tools or steps, avoid putting Windows options first unless there is a technical reason.
