Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing Windows-based tools (HIS Designer, Visual Studio, .NET Framework) for generating required metadata files, and does not mention or provide Linux alternatives or examples. All setup instructions and screenshots are based on Windows environments, with no guidance for Linux users. This may hinder Linux developers from following the workflow or using the IBM Host File connector effectively.
Recommendations
- Provide instructions for generating HIDX files using cross-platform or Linux-compatible tools, if available.
- List any Linux alternatives to HIS Designer and Visual Studio, or clarify if the process is Windows-only.
- Explicitly state OS requirements and limitations for key steps (e.g., metadata generation) and suggest workarounds for Linux users (such as using a Windows VM or container).
- Include example workflows and screenshots using Linux-based environments and tools where possible.
- If no Linux-compatible options exist, acknowledge this limitation and provide guidance for Linux users to access required functionality.
