Summary
The documentation demonstrates a bias towards Windows environments by providing installation instructions using Visual Studio's Package Manager Console (PowerShell-based) and referencing Visual Studio UI paths. While the .NET Core CLI is cross-platform, the Package Manager Console and Visual Studio instructions are Windows-centric, and there are no explicit Linux or non-Windows environment examples or guidance. The documentation assumes the use of Visual Studio, which is primarily a Windows tool, and omits parity for Linux development environments (e.g., VS Code, JetBrains Rider, or plain CLI usage on Linux/Mac).
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions for Linux and macOS users, such as using the .NET CLI for all package installations and project management tasks.
  • Avoid referencing Visual Studio-specific tools (like the Package Manager Console) as primary or only options; if included, present cross-platform CLI instructions first.
  • Mention and provide examples for popular cross-platform editors (e.g., VS Code) and how to perform equivalent tasks outside Visual Studio.
  • Clarify that all .NET CLI commands work identically on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide terminal/shell instructions for non-Windows users.
  • Where UI navigation is described (e.g., Visual Studio menus), offer alternative steps for CLI or other IDEs.
  • Include a note or section on developing and running the sample on Linux/macOS, highlighting any differences or prerequisites.
