Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias in several ways: it repeatedly refers to setting up and running the simulated TPM device on a Windows machine, lists Windows-specific tools (Visual Studio, .NET Core SDK, Simulator.exe), and provides step-by-step instructions tailored to Windows environments (e.g., Visual Studio solution files, command prompts, Git Bash). Linux and macOS environments are mentioned only in passing, with a link out to external SDK documentation, and there are no explicit Linux/macOS examples or instructions for building/running the TPM simulator or SDK samples on those platforms. The use of Windows-centric tools and patterns (e.g., Visual Studio, .exe files, Windows build tools for Node.js) further reinforces the bias.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit Linux and macOS instructions and examples for all SDKs, including installation, build, and run steps.
- Include Linux/macOS equivalents for Windows-only tools (e.g., alternatives to Visual Studio, .exe files, Windows build tools).
- Ensure parity in code samples and command-line instructions (e.g., use cross-platform commands, show both Windows and Linux/macOS terminal commands).
- Mention Linux/macOS prerequisites and environment setup in the main documentation, not just as a link to external resources.
- Where possible, use platform-neutral language and tools (e.g., CMake, VS Code, cross-platform SDKs) and avoid assuming a Windows development environment.
