Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias by exclusively referencing Windows-centric tools (Visual Studio, Package Manager Console, web.config), providing instructions tailored to Windows development environments, and omitting Linux equivalents or cross-platform alternatives. There are no examples for Linux users (e.g., using VS Code, command-line .NET tools, or Linux package managers), and the only package installation example uses PowerShell syntax. The workflow assumes a Windows GUI approach and does not mention how to run or debug the project on Linux or macOS.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions for using cross-platform editors such as Visual Studio Code or JetBrains Rider.
  • Include steps for installing dependencies and running the project using the .NET CLI (dotnet commands) instead of only Visual Studio and PowerShell.
  • Provide Linux/macOS-specific guidance for setting environment variables, editing configuration files, and running/debugging the application.
  • Show how to install NuGet packages using the dotnet CLI: 'dotnet add package Microsoft.Azure.SignalR.AspNet'.
  • Clarify that the sample can be run on Linux/macOS and provide troubleshooting tips for those platforms.
  • Mention alternative ways to set the connection string, such as environment variables, to avoid reliance on web.config (which is Windows/IIS-centric).
