Bias Analysis
Bias Types:

⚠️
windows_first
⚠️
missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by requiring Visual Studio (a Windows-centric IDE) as a prerequisite, providing only PowerShell examples for package installation, and omitting any Linux or cross-platform alternatives for setup and tooling. All command-line instructions are shown in PowerShell, and there is no mention of Linux-compatible editors or package managers. The guide assumes a Windows development environment throughout.
Recommendations:
- Add instructions for installing the .NET SDK and the Azure Communication Services Chat SDK using cross-platform tools (e.g., dotnet CLI) and show examples in Bash as well as PowerShell.
- Mention and provide links to cross-platform IDEs/editors such as VS Code, JetBrains Rider, or simply the .NET CLI, instead of only Visual Studio.
- Clarify that the SDK and all code samples are cross-platform and can be used on Linux and macOS, not just Windows.
- Where PowerShell is used for commands, provide equivalent Bash/zsh commands for Linux/macOS users.
- Explicitly state platform compatibility in the prerequisites section and avoid language that implies Windows is required.

#### Azure Communication Services
The `GetChatThreadClient` method returns a thread client for a thread that already exists. You can use it to perform operations on the created thread: add members, send message, and so on. `threadId` is the unique ID of the existing chat thread.
