Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. It exclusively references Visual Studio (a Windows-centric IDE), .NET Core, and C# for all code samples and deployment steps. All instructions for building, running, and deploying the bot and chat app are given using Visual Studio and Windows-specific workflows, with no mention of Linux or cross-platform alternatives. Package installation is shown using PowerShell syntax, and there are no CLI or editor-agnostic instructions. There are no Linux/macOS-specific notes, nor are there alternative examples using cross-platform tools or languages.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent instructions for Linux and macOS users, including how to install .NET Core, use the dotnet CLI, and deploy without Visual Studio.
- Include examples using cross-platform editors (e.g., VS Code) and command-line tools for building and deploying the bot and chat app.
- Show package installation using the generic dotnet CLI (e.g., 'dotnet add package ...') rather than PowerShell-specific syntax.
- Add notes or sections on how to run and debug the sample projects on Linux/macOS, including any prerequisites or differences.
- Where screenshots or UI steps are shown for Visual Studio, provide CLI alternatives or screenshots from cross-platform tools.
- Consider including code samples in additional languages supported by Azure Communication Services (e.g., JavaScript/Node.js) to broaden accessibility.
