Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias, especially in the SMART on FHIR Proxy section. All command-line examples use PowerShell syntax, and there are no equivalent bash or Linux/macOS instructions. The instructions for generating reply URLs, cloning repositories, configuring secrets, and running the app are all presented in PowerShell, which may create friction for Linux/macOS users. Additionally, Windows-centric tools and patterns (PowerShell, dotnet user-secrets) are mentioned exclusively, with no guidance for alternative platforms.
Recommendations
- Provide bash/zsh equivalents for all PowerShell scripts and commands, especially for reply URL generation and repository operations.
- Explicitly mention cross-platform compatibility for .NET SDK and app launcher, and provide instructions for running on Linux/macOS.
- Add notes or sections for Linux/macOS users, including how to install prerequisites and handle configuration (e.g., environment variables instead of user-secrets).
- Reorder examples so that platform-neutral or Linux/macOS instructions are presented alongside or before Windows-specific ones.
