Summary:
The documentation exhibits a strong Windows bias. It explicitly requires Windows 10 or 11 as a prerequisite, provides only Windows batch scripts for tool installation and build steps, and references Windows-specific tools (e.g., Termite, File Explorer, Device Manager). There are no instructions or examples for Linux (or macOS) users, and alternative cross-platform tools are not mentioned. Even when Azure CLI is discussed, the local installation context is implicitly Windows, and the use of Windows command shells is assumed.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent instructions and scripts for Linux (and optionally macOS), including shell (.sh) scripts for toolchain setup and build steps.
- List cross-platform alternatives to Windows-only tools such as Termite (e.g., minicom, screen, PuTTY) and provide usage examples.
- Update the prerequisites to include Linux (and macOS) as supported development environments, or clearly state if they are unsupported.
- When referencing file navigation, include Linux command-line equivalents (e.g., using terminal and file paths with forward slashes).
- For serial port identification, describe how to find device ports on Linux (e.g., using dmesg, ls /dev/tty*), not just Windows Device Manager.
- If Azure CLI is used, clarify that it is cross-platform and provide any OS-specific notes as needed.
- Consider restructuring the documentation so that instructions for different operating systems are presented in parallel or as tabs/sections.
