Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows development environments, specifically Visual Studio and PowerShell. All instructions for creating projects, managing packages, and authentication are given using Visual Studio GUI and PowerShell commands, with no mention of Linux or cross-platform alternatives such as VS Code, dotnet CLI, or Bash. There are no instructions for Linux users or guidance for using non-Windows tools, making it difficult for developers on Linux or macOS to follow the quickstart.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions for using the dotnet CLI to create projects, add packages, and run applications, which works on Windows, Linux, and macOS.
  • Include alternative steps for package installation using 'dotnet add package' instead of only PowerShell/Visual Studio NuGet Package Manager.
  • Provide guidance for using VS Code or other cross-platform editors, not just Visual Studio.
  • Explicitly mention that the code and libraries work on Linux and macOS, and provide any necessary setup steps for those platforms.
  • Add screenshots or terminal examples for Linux/macOS environments where appropriate.
  • Clarify that authentication via DefaultAzureCredential works outside Visual Studio, and provide instructions for signing in with Azure CLI or environment variables on Linux/macOS.
