Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (Fiddler, web.config, Windows Phone 8) are mentioned before or more prominently than Linux equivalents. Logging and tracing instructions often reference Windows-centric configuration (web.config, Windows desktop apps) and platforms (Windows Phone 8) without equivalent Linux or cross-platform guidance. Linux tools (tcpdump) are mentioned, but typically after Windows tools and without detailed parity in examples.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux tools (e.g., tcpdump) alongside Windows tools (e.g., Fiddler), giving equal prominence and detail.
  • Provide explicit Linux configuration examples for logging and tracing (e.g., alternatives to web.config for .NET Core on Linux).
  • Include troubleshooting steps and examples for Linux and macOS environments, such as using systemd, journalctl, or other native logging mechanisms.
  • Avoid referencing Windows-only platforms (e.g., Windows Phone 8) without noting their obsolescence and providing alternatives for other platforms.
  • Ensure all code/configuration samples are cross-platform or provide separate samples for Windows and Linux.
  • Add a section or callouts for Linux-specific troubleshooting tips and common issues.
