Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a clear Windows bias. It exclusively uses C# code samples and references Visual Studio as the required development environment, with no mention of Linux alternatives or cross-platform editors. The only tool recommended for inspecting HTTP requests is Fiddler, a Windows-centric application, and there are no examples or guidance for Linux users (e.g., using curl, VS Code, or Linux network sniffers). The documentation does mention that REST APIs are platform-agnostic, but all practical guidance and examples are tailored to Windows development workflows.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent code samples in a cross-platform language (e.g., Python, JavaScript, or shell scripts using curl) to demonstrate REST API calls from Linux or macOS.
  • Include instructions for setting up the development environment on Linux, such as using VS Code, JetBrains Rider, or command-line tools.
  • Suggest Linux-compatible tools for inspecting HTTP requests and responses, such as Wireshark, tcpdump, or curl with verbose output.
  • Explicitly state that the sample application can be run on Linux using .NET Core, and provide steps for doing so.
  • Balance references to Windows-specific tools (Visual Studio, Fiddler) with Linux/macOS alternatives.
  • Consider reordering sections so that cross-platform options are presented before or alongside Windows-specific instructions.
