Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows environments, specifically Microsoft Dev Box and Visual Studio on Windows. All code examples for generating solution caches use PowerShell and Windows-specific tools (devenv.exe), with no mention of Linux equivalents or cross-platform alternatives. The instructions and prerequisites assume a Windows-based workflow, and there are no examples or guidance for Linux users or developers using Visual Studio Code or other IDEs.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent instructions and examples for Linux environments, such as using Visual Studio Code or cross-platform .NET CLI tools.
- Include bash or shell script examples for cache generation and Git optimizations, not just PowerShell.
- Clarify whether the cache generation process is possible or relevant on Linux-based dev boxes, and if not, explicitly state the limitation.
- Mention any cross-platform alternatives to Visual Studio (such as VS Code) and describe how similar optimizations could be performed.
- Reorder or balance examples so that Linux and Windows instructions are presented together, or in parallel sections, to avoid Windows-first bias.
