Windows First

Powershell Heavy
Summary
The tutorial is strongly oriented toward Windows development, focusing exclusively on ASP.NET (.NET Framework) and Visual Studio, both of which are Windows-only. All project creation and build/run instructions assume Visual Studio, with no mention of Linux-compatible alternatives (e.g., Mono, .NET Core, VS Code). While environment variable setup includes bash commands for macOS/Linux, all code samples and workflow steps are tailored for Windows users, and Windows command-line tools (cmd, PowerShell) are listed before Linux equivalents.
Recommendations
- Add instructions for setting up and running the application on Linux (e.g., using Mono or .NET Core where possible).
- Include alternative IDEs such as Visual Studio Code or JetBrains Rider, and provide steps for project creation and management on those platforms.
- Present Linux/macOS commands before or alongside Windows commands, not after.
- Clarify platform limitations (e.g., .NET Framework is Windows-only) and link to cross-platform alternatives (e.g., ASP.NET Core tutorials).
- Provide guidance for building and running the application using command-line tools (dotnet CLI, msbuild) on Linux/macOS.
- Where possible, offer parity in troubleshooting, resource cleanup, and next steps for non-Windows environments.
