Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: Windows tools and workflows (Visual Studio, PowerShell, Windows command prompt) are mentioned first and in more detail, especially in the C and C# sections. Linux alternatives are referenced but often as secondary, with less explicit guidance or relegated to external links. PowerShell and Windows command prompt examples are given before Linux/openssl equivalents. The overall narrative and instructions assume a Windows-based workstation as the default, with Linux support presented as an afterthought.
Recommendations
- Present Linux and Windows instructions with equal prominence, ideally side-by-side or in parallel tabs.
- Provide explicit Linux setup and build instructions within the main documentation, not just as external links.
- Include Linux-first or cross-platform examples for all SDKs and languages, especially for C and C#.
- Avoid language such as 'This tutorial is oriented toward a Windows-based workstation' or clarify that all platforms are equally supported.
- For command-line examples, show both Windows (cmd/PowerShell) and Linux (bash) commands together.
- Highlight cross-platform tools (e.g., VS Code, CMake, Git) and their installation on Linux and macOS.
- Ensure screenshots and walkthroughs include Linux environments where applicable.
- Review and update prerequisites to list Linux and macOS options before or alongside Windows.
