Summary
The documentation page exhibits bias toward Windows environments by exclusively referencing Microsoft Rules Composer and BizTalk Server, both of which are Windows-only tools. There are no Linux/macOS alternatives or instructions for creating or exporting rulesets. The examples and screenshots are all based on Visual Studio Code, which is cross-platform, but the critical prerequisite tooling and workflows (Rules Composer, BizTalk) are Windows-specific. Additionally, the .NET Framework references (net472) suggest a Windows-centric build process, with no mention of .NET Core/6+ or cross-platform compatibility.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state platform requirements for Microsoft Rules Composer and BizTalk Server, and clarify that these steps require Windows.
- Provide guidance or alternatives for Linux/macOS users, such as using .NET Core/6+ for custom code, or clarify if the Rules Engine supports .NET Standard or .NET 6+ assemblies.
- If possible, offer a cross-platform way to author rulesets (e.g., via JSON/XML editing or open-source alternatives) and document how Linux/macOS users can participate in the workflow.
- Add Linux/macOS-specific instructions for compiling and running the project, including terminal commands and environment setup.
- Reorder or supplement examples so that cross-platform steps are presented first, and Windows-only steps are clearly marked as such.
