Summary
The tutorial exhibits significant Windows bias: all examples use Visual Studio and .NET Framework (Windows-centric tools), instructions reference Windows-specific UI actions (e.g., 'Run as administrator', Solution Explorer), and there are no Linux or cross-platform alternatives provided. The use of WCF and .NET Framework further restricts the tutorial to Windows environments, with no mention of how to achieve similar functionality on Linux or with cross-platform technologies.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions and examples for building and running the service on Linux, using .NET Core/.NET 6+ (which is cross-platform) and compatible editors like VS Code.
  • Include command-line instructions for project creation and package management (e.g., dotnet CLI) instead of relying solely on Visual Studio UI.
  • Clarify which steps are Windows-specific and provide Linux/macOS equivalents (e.g., file paths, running as administrator/sudo).
  • Mention and demonstrate how to use cross-platform alternatives to WCF (such as ASP.NET Core with Azure Relay, if supported) or note platform limitations.
  • Explicitly state the platform requirements and suggest alternatives for non-Windows users.
