Summary
The documentation demonstrates a subtle Windows bias by listing Windows terminals (Command Prompt, PowerShell) before Bash when instructing users to open a terminal. All command-line examples use generic 'dotnet' CLI commands, which are cross-platform, but there are no explicit Linux-specific instructions, troubleshooting, or environment setup notes. The documentation does not mention Linux-specific considerations, such as permissions, package managers, or shell differences, nor does it provide example output for Linux terminals. There is also a lack of parity in terms of guidance for Linux users, such as using VS Code on Linux or running the application in a Linux container.
Recommendations
  • List Bash (or Linux terminal) first when mentioning terminal options, or explicitly state that instructions apply equally to Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • Add Linux-specific notes, such as how to install .NET SDK on popular Linux distributions, and troubleshooting tips for common Linux issues (e.g., permissions, environment variables).
  • Provide example output from a Linux terminal, and clarify that the dotnet CLI commands work identically on Linux.
  • Include instructions for running the application in a Linux container (e.g., Docker), or mention how to use VS Code on Linux.
  • Explicitly state cross-platform compatibility in the prerequisites or overview section.
