Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. It explicitly requires a Windows 10 or 11 PC as a prerequisite, provides only Windows-specific setup scripts (*.bat files), and references Windows tools (such as Termite and File Explorer) without offering Linux alternatives. Instructions for tasks like flashing the device, running setup scripts, and monitoring serial output are all tailored to Windows, with no mention of Linux or cross-platform equivalents. While the Azure CLI is cross-platform, the overall workflow and tooling assume a Windows environment.
Recommendations
- Add explicit support and instructions for Linux (and macOS) users, including prerequisites and alternative tools.
- Provide Linux-compatible setup scripts (e.g., get-toolchain.sh) and update instructions to reference them.
- Suggest cross-platform serial monitoring tools (e.g., minicom, screen, PuTTY) alongside or instead of Termite.
- Replace or supplement File Explorer instructions with command-line equivalents (e.g., cp command) for Linux/macOS.
- Clarify which steps are Windows-specific and provide parallel steps for Linux/macOS where applicable.
- Test the workflow on Linux and document any differences or additional requirements.
