Summary:
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows development, specifically using Visual Studio and .NET. All examples and setup instructions assume the use of Visual Studio (a Windows-centric IDE) and do not provide alternative instructions or examples for Linux users or those using cross-platform tools. There are no Linux or cross-platform code samples, nor are there instructions for using .NET Core/SDK on Linux, VS Code, or command-line alternatives. The only non-Windows-specific command is the OpenSSL example for certificate creation.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent instructions for Linux users, such as using .NET SDK and VS Code or command-line tools instead of Visual Studio.
- Include code samples and project setup steps for .NET Core/SDK on Linux and macOS.
- Add instructions for installing the Azure IoT Hub SDK using the .NET CLI (dotnet add package) rather than only NuGet Package Manager in Visual Studio.
- Clarify that the .NET SDK and Azure IoT Hub client libraries are cross-platform and provide explicit Linux/macOS guidance.
- Consider including bash or shell commands for building and running the sample app on Linux.
- Ensure screenshots and UI steps are supplemented with command-line alternatives where possible.
