Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias primarily through exclusive reliance on Windows-only tooling and prerequisites. The required 3270 Design Tool is only available for Windows (.NET Framework 4.8 required), with no mention of Linux-compatible alternatives or instructions. All setup and workflow examples assume use of the Azure portal, which is cross-platform, but do not provide command-line or automation examples that would be relevant for Linux users. There is no guidance for users who may wish to generate HIDX files or interact with the connector from Linux environments.
Recommendations
- Provide information about Linux-compatible alternatives for generating HIDX files, or clarify if the 3270 Design Tool can be run under Wine/Mono or in a container.
- Include instructions or examples for interacting with Azure Logic Apps and the IBM 3270 connector via CLI (Azure CLI, PowerShell Core, REST API), which can be used on Linux.
- Explicitly state platform requirements and limitations for the 3270 Design Tool, and suggest workarounds for Linux users.
- If no Linux-native tooling exists, consider providing a roadmap or guidance for cross-platform support, or recommend open-source alternatives if available.
