Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All instructions for creating and managing the .NET projects assume the use of Visual Studio 2022, a Windows-centric IDE, and reference Windows UI elements (menus, dialog boxes). Package installation is shown exclusively using the NuGet Package Manager Console with PowerShell commands, which is not standard on Linux/macOS. There are no CLI or cross-platform instructions (e.g., using dotnet CLI or Visual Studio Code), and no mention of Linux or macOS environments. This may hinder Linux or cross-platform .NET developers.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent instructions for Linux and macOS users, including how to create and manage .NET projects using the dotnet CLI.
- Provide package installation examples using the dotnet CLI (e.g., 'dotnet add package ...') alongside or instead of PowerShell/NuGet Package Manager Console.
- Mention and provide steps for using cross-platform editors such as Visual Studio Code.
- Avoid assuming Visual Studio is the only development environment; clarify that .NET Core/.NET 5+ is cross-platform.
- Explicitly state that the instructions work on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and call out any OS-specific differences.
- Where UI navigation is described (e.g., menu clicks), provide CLI alternatives or note the equivalent steps for non-Windows environments.
