Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by listing Windows-specific console environments (cmd, PowerShell) before Bash when describing how to create a new C# application. There are no explicit Linux or macOS-specific instructions or troubleshooting notes, and all examples use .NET and MailKit, which are cross-platform, but the terminal instructions and environment references are Windows-centric. There is no mention of Linux package managers, shell differences, or platform-specific considerations for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention Linux and macOS as supported platforms for .NET and MailKit.
  • Provide Linux/macOS-specific instructions, such as using Terminal, and reference common package managers (e.g., apt, yum, brew) for installing .NET.
  • List Bash/Terminal before or alongside cmd/PowerShell when describing console environments.
  • Add troubleshooting notes for Linux/macOS users (e.g., permissions, environment variables, SSL/TLS issues).
  • Include a note or section confirming that the instructions work on Linux/macOS and highlight any platform-specific caveats.
