Summary
The documentation is notably Windows-centric: prerequisites require Windows 10/11, all setup and build scripts are provided as .bat files (Windows batch), and tool usage instructions reference Windows-specific utilities (e.g., Termite, Windows Device Manager, File Explorer). There are no Linux/macOS equivalents or instructions for critical steps such as toolchain setup, flashing, or serial monitoring. This creates significant friction for non-Windows users.
Recommendations
- Add explicit support and instructions for Linux/macOS, including prerequisites and supported OS versions.
- Provide shell script equivalents (e.g., get-toolchain.sh, rebuild.sh) for setup and build steps.
- List and describe cross-platform serial monitoring tools (e.g., minicom, screen, picocom) and how to use them.
- Explain how to identify serial ports on Linux/macOS (e.g., /dev/ttyUSB*), and provide troubleshooting tips.
- Avoid referencing Windows tools (File Explorer, Device Manager) without Linux/macOS alternatives.
- Reorder instructions to present cross-platform options first, or in parallel, rather than Windows-only steps.
