Summary
The documentation exhibits a notable Windows bias. Windows is referenced as the default development environment, with Visual Studio and Windows-specific tools (e.g., Simulator.exe, Visual Studio command prompt) featured prominently and often exclusively. Linux and macOS users are redirected to external SDK documentation for setup, and there are no explicit Linux/macOS build/run instructions or examples for the TPM simulator or SDK samples. Most command-line examples use Windows CMD syntax, and troubleshooting steps reference Windows build tools. This creates friction for non-Windows users attempting to follow the quickstart.
Recommendations
- Add explicit Linux/macOS setup and build instructions for each language, including required packages and dependencies.
- Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for running the TPM simulator (e.g., using Mono, Wine, or native builds if available).
- Include Linux/macOS command-line examples (bash/zsh) alongside Windows CMD/PowerShell examples.
- List prerequisites for Windows, Linux, and macOS equally, not just referencing Windows first.
- Address troubleshooting steps for Linux/macOS environments (e.g., compiler issues, permissions).
- Clarify whether the TPM simulator and SDK samples are supported and tested on Linux/macOS, and provide links to relevant resources.
