Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing Windows-based tools (Host Integration Server, HIS Designer, Visual Studio, .NET Framework 4.8) for generating and managing IBM Host File metadata. All setup and workflow examples assume the use of these Windows tools, with no mention of Linux alternatives or cross-platform options. There are no instructions or examples for performing equivalent tasks on Linux, and Windows tooling is presented as the default and only path.
Recommendations
- Provide instructions or tooling for generating HIDX files on Linux, such as CLI tools, open-source alternatives, or containerized solutions.
- Mention whether HIS Designer and related tools can be run on Linux (e.g., via Mono, Wine, or in a container), or clarify their platform limitations.
- Offer examples of workflows using Linux-based environments, such as using Linux-compatible editors or automation tools.
- Explicitly state platform requirements and suggest workarounds or alternatives for non-Windows users.
- Include parity in screenshots and step-by-step guides for Linux users, where possible.
