Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias. Windows is mentioned explicitly as a supported platform before Linux or macOS in several SDK feature announcements (e.g., 'Calling SDKs for Android, iOS, and Windows'), and Windows is listed as a target for native apps and features. There are no explicit Linux or macOS examples, nor are Linux-specific tools or patterns referenced. Windows-centric terminology (e.g., 'Teams client', 'Power BI', 'Windows calling SDK') is used, and there is a lack of parity in code samples or platform-specific instructions for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit references to Linux and macOS support wherever SDK/platform support is listed, not just Windows.
  • Provide Linux/macOS-specific examples or instructions, especially for SDK usage, deployment, and troubleshooting.
  • When listing supported platforms, avoid listing Windows first unless it is genuinely the only supported platform; use alphabetical order or group by mobile/desktop.
  • Add parity in code samples, showing how to use SDKs and APIs on Linux (e.g., with .NET Core, Node.js, or Python on Linux).
  • Reference Linux-compatible tools for analytics and troubleshooting (e.g., alternatives to Power BI, or instructions for using Azure portal/logs on Linux).
  • Clarify any platform limitations or differences, so Linux developers know what is or isn't supported.
