Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows development environments, specifically Visual Studio and PowerShell. All instructions for creating projects, managing NuGet packages, and authentication are given using Visual Studio UI and PowerShell commands, with no mention of cross-platform alternatives (e.g., VS Code, CLI, or Linux/Mac workflows). There are no examples or guidance for Linux users, such as using the .NET CLI, alternative editors, or shell commands. The documentation assumes the reader is using Windows and Visual Studio, which may exclude or confuse developers on Linux or macOS.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions for creating and managing .NET projects using the .NET CLI (dotnet new, dotnet add package, etc.), which works on Windows, Linux, and macOS.
  • Include examples of installing NuGet packages via the CLI (e.g., 'dotnet add package Azure.Messaging.ServiceBus') instead of only PowerShell.
  • Mention and provide guidance for using cross-platform editors like Visual Studio Code.
  • Clarify that the code samples work on Linux and macOS as well, and provide any OS-specific notes if needed (e.g., for authentication via DefaultAzureCredential).
  • Add screenshots or steps for Linux/macOS environments, or at least note differences in workflow.
  • Avoid assuming Visual Studio is required; note that .NET development is fully supported on other platforms.
