Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows tools (Fiddler) are mentioned before Linux equivalents (tcpdump), and some logging/tracing instructions focus on Windows-specific platforms (Windows Phone 8, Windows desktop apps) without Linux alternatives. There is a lack of parity in examples and instructions for Linux environments, especially for logging and tracing in .NET clients. The documentation also references configuration files (web.config) and patterns typical of Windows/IIS deployments, with no mention of Linux-specific equivalents.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Linux tools (e.g., tcpdump, Wireshark) are presented alongside or before Windows tools like Fiddler.
  • Provide explicit Linux/macOS examples for enabling .NET client logging and tracing, including configuration for common Linux hosting scenarios.
  • Include instructions for configuring server-side logging and tracing in Linux environments (e.g., using environment variables, systemd, or file-based logging).
  • Avoid referencing Windows-only platforms (e.g., Windows Phone 8) without noting their limited applicability and providing alternatives for other platforms.
  • Where configuration files are referenced (e.g., web.config), mention Linux equivalents or alternative approaches for cross-platform deployments.
