Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows development environments. All instructions and examples assume the use of Visual Studio (Windows-only for .NET Framework), and there is no mention of Linux or cross-platform development tools. The tutorial steps, screenshots, and project templates are all specific to Windows and Visual Studio, with no guidance for Linux users or those using cross-platform .NET Core/SDK tools.
Recommendations:
  • Provide equivalent instructions for Linux users, including how to set up the development environment using .NET Core/SDK CLI tools (dotnet CLI) instead of Visual Studio.
  • Include examples and steps for creating, building, and running the projects using cross-platform tools (e.g., VS Code, JetBrains Rider, or the dotnet CLI).
  • Clarify which parts of the tutorial require Windows-specific technologies (such as WCF with .NET Framework) and suggest alternatives or workarounds for Linux users.
  • Add notes or sections that explicitly address Linux/macOS users, including any limitations or required adaptations.
  • Where possible, use .NET 6+ and cross-platform project types (such as ASP.NET Core) to maximize compatibility.
