Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias. It consistently lists Windows and Visual Studio as primary or required development environments, provides detailed steps for Windows/UWP, and omits equivalent Linux development instructions. There are no examples or guidance for running the backend or frontend on Linux, nor for using cross-platform tools or editors. References to IIS and Azure App Service (Windows) further reinforce the Windows-centric approach.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit instructions for setting up and running the backend API on Linux (e.g., using .NET Core CLI, VS Code, or JetBrains Rider).
- Include Linux/macOS equivalents for all build and deployment steps, such as using 'dotnet build' and 'dotnet publish' instead of Visual Studio menus.
- Document how to run the React Native manager app on Linux (if supported), or clarify platform limitations.
- Provide troubleshooting steps for common Linux/macOS issues, not just Windows-specific errors.
- Mention cross-platform database options or clarify how to connect to Azure SQL from Linux environments.
- Avoid assuming Visual Studio is required; mention VS Code and other editors where possible.
- Ensure all CLI commands (npm, npx, dotnet, etc.) are presented in a platform-agnostic way, and specify any OS-specific differences.
