Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a clear Windows bias. Windows is mentioned first and most prominently throughout, with explicit references to 'your Windows machine' and 'Windows-based workstation.' Prerequisites and setup instructions focus on Windows tools (Visual Studio, CMD, Git Bash), and Linux alternatives are either relegated to external links or not described in detail. Command-line examples use Windows syntax (cmd) exclusively, and there are no explicit Linux shell (bash) equivalents. The only mention of Linux is a pointer to a separate tutorial, rather than integrated parity within the main flow.
Recommendations:
- Provide parallel Linux/macOS instructions and examples alongside Windows steps, not just as external links.
- Include bash shell equivalents for all command-line instructions (e.g., git, cmake, npm, pip, java commands).
- Mention and support Linux-native tools (e.g., GCC, Clang, make) where Visual Studio is referenced, and clarify how to use them.
- Adjust language to be platform-neutral (e.g., 'your development machine' instead of 'your Windows machine').
- Where environment variables are set, show both Windows (set) and Linux/macOS (export) syntax.
- For code editing and building, mention cross-platform editors (e.g., VS Code) and build systems (e.g., CMake, Maven) with Linux usage notes.
- Ensure screenshots and UI instructions are not Windows-specific, or provide Linux equivalents where relevant.
