Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias in several ways: Windows prerequisites and tooling (Visual Studio, PowerShell) are presented first and in detail, with Linux alternatives relegated to external links or brief mentions. The development environment setup and device simulation instructions are heavily oriented toward Windows and Visual Studio, with only minimal guidance for Linux users. Examples and step-by-step instructions prioritize Windows workflows, and Linux parity is not maintained throughout the tutorial.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux and macOS instructions alongside Windows steps, not just as external links.
  • Include explicit Linux shell commands and package requirements for SDK setup and device simulation.
  • Offer examples using popular Linux IDEs (e.g., VS Code, CLion) and build tools (e.g., gcc, make) for the C SDK.
  • Ensure all code samples (environment variable setup, build commands) are shown for both Bash and PowerShell equally.
  • Add troubleshooting and cleanup steps for Linux environments.
  • Clarify which steps are OS-agnostic and which require OS-specific instructions.
  • Balance screenshots and UI walkthroughs with CLI alternatives where possible.
