Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows development environments, specifically Visual Studio and C#. All code samples and instructions assume use of Visual Studio, with no mention of Linux/macOS alternatives (e.g., VS Code, JetBrains Rider, or CLI-based workflows). There are no examples in other languages or instructions for running the sample on Linux/macOS, despite REST APIs being cross-platform. The only tool mentioned for inspecting HTTP traffic is Fiddler, which is primarily Windows-focused.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions for running the sample code on Linux/macOS, such as using .NET Core/SDK and VS Code or JetBrains Rider.
  • Mention cross-platform alternatives to Visual Studio, and clarify that the sample can be built and run on Linux/macOS using the .NET CLI.
  • Provide examples of inspecting HTTP traffic using cross-platform tools like Wireshark or mitmproxy, in addition to Fiddler.
  • Include a note that the REST API can be called from any platform and provide sample code in a language commonly used on Linux/macOS (e.g., Python, JavaScript, or Bash with curl).
  • Explicitly state that the sample is not Windows-only and provide parity guidance for non-Windows users.
