Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias primarily through its prerequisites and setup instructions. It exclusively recommends Visual Studio (a Windows-centric IDE) and provides only PowerShell/dotnet CLI commands for package installation, without mentioning Linux alternatives or cross-platform editors. There are no references to Linux tools, editors, or shell environments, and no examples for Linux-specific workflows. The Azure CLI example is cross-platform, but the overall guidance and examples assume a Windows development environment.
Recommendations
  • Include instructions for installing the SDK using Linux/macOS shells (e.g., bash/zsh), and clarify that 'dotnet' CLI works cross-platform.
  • Mention cross-platform IDEs such as VS Code, JetBrains Rider, or command-line editors, and provide links to their installation guides.
  • Add explicit notes that all code samples and CLI commands work on Linux and macOS, not just Windows.
  • Provide examples of setting up the development environment on Linux (e.g., using apt-get/yum for .NET SDK installation).
  • Avoid recommending only Windows-specific tools (Visual Studio, PowerShell) in the prerequisites; offer alternatives or clarify cross-platform options.
