Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows environments, specifically focusing on Visual Studio and Microsoft Dev Box, which are Windows-centric. All command-line examples use PowerShell and Windows tools (e.g., devenv.exe), with no mention of Linux equivalents or cross-platform alternatives. There are no instructions or examples for performing similar tasks on Linux-based dev boxes, nor is there guidance for non-Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent instructions and examples for Linux environments, such as using VS Code or cross-platform .NET CLI tools for solution caching.
  • Include bash or shell script examples alongside PowerShell commands where possible.
  • Clarify whether the described features (e.g., Visual Studio solution cache, commit-graph optimizations) are available or relevant on Linux-based dev boxes, and if not, explicitly state this.
  • Mention cross-platform alternatives (e.g., Rider, VS Code, or MonoDevelop) and how to optimize their startup or cache behavior if applicable.
  • Reorganize sections to avoid implicit prioritization of Windows tools and workflows, or add a 'Platform support' section to clarify scope.
