Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing Windows-based tools (Host Integration Server Designer, .NET Framework 4.8) for generating required metadata files, and by highlighting historical Windows integration patterns. There are no mentions of Linux equivalents, cross-platform alternatives, or instructions for Linux users. All setup and prerequisites assume a Windows environment.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state platform requirements for Host Integration Server Designer and clarify if Linux or macOS alternatives exist.
  • If possible, provide instructions or tooling for generating HIDX files on Linux (e.g., via containerized tools, web-based designer, or CLI utilities).
  • Include a section addressing Linux users, with guidance on how to participate in the workflow or alternatives if Windows-only tooling is required.
  • Mention any cross-platform compatibility for the connector itself, and clarify which steps are platform-dependent.
  • If no Linux alternatives exist, acknowledge this limitation and suggest workarounds (such as using a Windows VM or cloud-hosted service for metadata generation).
