Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows tools and workflows. Visual Studio (Windows-only) is the sole IDE mentioned, and all project creation steps assume its use. Environment variable instructions list Windows Command Prompt and PowerShell before Linux/macOS, and use setx (Windows-specific) as the primary example. There are no Linux-specific development environment instructions, nor any mention of cross-platform .NET development tools (e.g., VS Code, JetBrains Rider, or CLI-only workflows). The configuration file examples and build/run instructions are tailored to Windows conventions, with no guidance for Linux users on compiling or running .NET Framework apps.
Recommendations
  • Include instructions for creating and running the app using cross-platform tools such as Visual Studio Code or JetBrains Rider, and .NET CLI where possible.
  • Provide Linux/macOS-specific steps for project setup, environment variable management, and running the application, including terminal commands and any required dependencies.
  • List Linux/macOS commands before or alongside Windows commands to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Clarify that .NET Framework is Windows-only, and suggest .NET Core/.NET 6+ for cross-platform scenarios, with links to equivalent quickstarts.
  • Add troubleshooting notes for Linux/macOS users, especially regarding environment variables and compatibility.
