Summary:
The documentation shows a mild Windows bias. In several places, Windows tools and patterns are mentioned first or exclusively, such as Fiddler for network tracing and web.config for logging. Linux alternatives are sometimes mentioned, but often as secondary options or without equal detail. Some logging/tracing instructions are Windows-specific or reference Windows-only platforms (e.g., Windows Phone 8). There is a lack of parity in examples and guidance for Linux environments.
Recommendations:
- When listing tools for network tracing, present cross-platform options (e.g., tcpdump, Wireshark) before or alongside Windows-specific tools like Fiddler.
- Provide explicit Linux and macOS examples for enabling server-side and client-side logging, not just web.config (which is Windows/IIS-centric). Include instructions for configuring logging in Linux deployments (e.g., using environment variables, appsettings.json, or systemd).
- Avoid referencing Windows-only platforms (e.g., Windows Phone 8) without mentioning their irrelevance to Linux users or providing Linux/mobile alternatives.
- Ensure all code/configuration snippets are applicable to both Windows and Linux, or provide parallel examples for each.
- Where possible, use neutral language and tool ordering (e.g., 'To collect a network trace, you can use tcpdump (Linux/macOS), Wireshark (cross-platform), or Fiddler (Windows)').
