Summary
The documentation page is heavily focused on Windows, with all detailed setup instructions and examples tailored exclusively for Windows environments. It relies on Windows-specific tools (SignTool.exe, MSI installers, winget, PowerShell), and does not provide equivalent instructions or examples for Linux or macOS users. Linux/macOS users are left without guidance for setting up Artifact Signing, especially for the SignTool integration.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit instructions for Linux/macOS users, including supported signing tools and setup steps.
  • Include examples for cross-platform tools (e.g., OpenSSL, osslsigncode, or platform-agnostic SDK usage) where possible.
  • If SignTool is Windows-only, clarify alternative signing workflows for Linux/macOS users using Artifact Signing SDK or other integrations.
  • List Linux/macOS compatible installers and commands (e.g., .NET runtime installation via apt, yum, or brew).
  • Ensure parity in authentication and configuration examples for non-Windows platforms.
