Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias, especially in the project setup and initial instructions. Visual Studio is presented as the default IDE, and the project creation steps are tailored for Windows users. The use of vcpkg is shown with the Windows executable (vcpkg.exe), and screenshots and instructions focus on Visual Studio dialogs for creating a Windows console app. Linux instructions are present for setting environment variables, but overall, Windows tools and patterns are introduced first and more prominently.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions and screenshots for setting up a C++ project on Linux/macOS using CMake or other common tools.
  • Show vcpkg usage with cross-platform commands (e.g., ./vcpkg install ...) and clarify platform differences.
  • Include guidance for using alternative IDEs (e.g., VS Code, CLion) or command-line workflows for non-Windows users.
  • Present Linux/macOS environment variable setup instructions before or alongside Windows instructions.
  • Avoid assuming Visual Studio as the default development environment; mention alternatives in the prerequisites and setup sections.
