Summary
The documentation is generally cross-platform and browser/JavaScript focused, but there is a subtle Windows bias in the proxy service example, which uses an .ashx handler (a Windows/IIS/ASP.NET-specific pattern). There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform proxy service examples, and the documentation does not mention how to implement the proxy on non-Windows platforms. No PowerShell or Windows command-line examples are present, but the only server-side implementation detail given is Windows-specific.
Recommendations
- Replace or supplement the .ashx proxy service example with cross-platform alternatives, such as Node.js (Express), Python (Flask), or Nginx proxy configurations.
- Explicitly mention that the proxy service can be implemented in any language or platform, and provide links or code snippets for Linux-friendly implementations.
- Avoid referencing Windows/IIS/ASP.NET-specific file extensions or handlers as the default or only example.
- Add a note or section on deploying the proxy service on Linux-based environments (e.g., Azure App Service for Linux, Docker containers, etc.).
