Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. All command-line examples use PowerShell, certificate export instructions reference Windows file paths and tools, and registry modification steps are Windows-specific. There are no Linux/macOS equivalents or guidance for performing these steps on non-Windows platforms, despite mentioning cross-platform appliance scenarios.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent certificate generation and export instructions using OpenSSL or mkcert for Linux/macOS.
- Include steps for installing certificates on Linux (e.g., using openssl, certutil, or update-ca-certificates) and macOS (Keychain Access or security CLI).
- Offer guidance for storing appliance configuration outside the Windows registry, such as using environment variables or configuration files for Linux/macOS.
- Clearly indicate which steps are Windows-only and offer alternative instructions for Linux/macOS users.
- Reorder examples so that cross-platform tools (OpenSSL, mkcert) are presented before or alongside PowerShell.
