Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias. It explicitly requires a Windows 10/11 PC as a prerequisite, provides only Windows-specific scripts (e.g., .bat files), and references Windows tools and workflows (such as File Explorer, Device Manager, and Termite, which is Windows-only). There are no instructions or alternatives for Linux or macOS users, and no mention of equivalent tools or scripts for non-Windows environments.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent setup scripts for Linux and macOS (e.g., shell scripts like get-toolchain.sh).
- Include instructions for installing and using cross-platform or Linux-native serial terminal tools (e.g., minicom, screen, or picocom) as alternatives to Termite.
- Replace or supplement references to Windows File Explorer and Device Manager with cross-platform alternatives or command-line instructions.
- Update prerequisites to clarify support for Linux/macOS, or explicitly state if only Windows is supported (and why).
- Ensure all command-line examples and workflow steps are demonstrated for both Windows and Linux/macOS environments.
- If certain tools are Windows-only, suggest open-source or cross-platform alternatives and provide usage instructions.
