Summary
The documentation exhibits a strong Windows bias. It explicitly requires a Windows 10/11 PC, provides only Windows batch scripts (*.bat) for toolchain setup and build, and references Windows-specific tools (Termite, File Explorer, Device Manager). There are no instructions or examples for Linux or macOS users, nor alternative scripts (e.g., shell scripts) for non-Windows platforms. The guidance for console usage and troubleshooting is also Windows-centric.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit support and instructions for Linux and macOS, including prerequisites and compatible tools.
  • Provide shell script equivalents (e.g., get-toolchain.sh, rebuild.sh) for setup and build steps.
  • List cross-platform serial terminal alternatives to Termite (e.g., minicom, screen, PuTTY) and include setup instructions for each OS.
  • Replace or supplement File Explorer and Device Manager steps with platform-agnostic or Linux/macOS-specific alternatives (e.g., using lsblk, dmesg, or /dev/tty* for device identification).
  • Clarify which steps are Windows-only and which are cross-platform; reorganize instructions so that Windows, Linux, and macOS users can follow parallel workflows.
  • Test and document the full tutorial on Linux and macOS to ensure parity and update troubleshooting sections accordingly.
