Summary
The documentation demonstrates a clear Windows bias, particularly in the 'How-to guide' sections. All command-line examples for generating keys and certificates use PowerShell and reference Windows-specific tools (e.g., New-SelfSignedCertificate). There are no equivalent examples for Linux or macOS environments, and Windows tooling is mentioned first and exclusively. This may hinder cross-platform adoption and usability for developers on non-Windows systems.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Linux/macOS command-line examples for generating symmetric keys (e.g., using OpenSSL or /dev/urandom).
- Include instructions for creating self-signed certificates on Linux/macOS (e.g., using OpenSSL) alongside the PowerShell example.
- When referencing tools or commands, mention cross-platform or OS-agnostic options first, or present them in parallel.
- Clarify in the documentation that the examples are platform-specific and provide links or guidance for other platforms.
- Consider including sample scripts or commands for common developer environments (Bash, zsh, etc.) to improve accessibility.
