Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias. It references enabling Teams Phone features via PowerShell, links to Windows-centric Teams deployment documentation, and does not provide Linux-specific guidance or examples for any administrative steps. All code samples are cross-platform JavaScript, but prerequisite and setup steps assume a Windows/PowerShell environment, with no mention of Linux alternatives or parity.
Recommendations
  • Where PowerShell is referenced for enabling Teams Phone features, provide equivalent instructions for Linux/macOS users (e.g., using cross-platform PowerShell Core, or via the Teams Admin Center web UI).
  • When linking to Teams deployment documentation, clarify if the instructions are Windows-only or provide links to cross-platform or web-based alternatives.
  • Explicitly state that the JavaScript code samples and development workflow (using Node.js, webpack, etc.) are cross-platform and can be run on Linux/macOS as well as Windows.
  • If any administrative steps (such as retrieving Teams user IDs or managing licenses) can be performed via the Azure Portal or web interfaces, highlight these as OS-neutral options.
  • Add a note in the prerequisites section to reassure Linux/macOS users that the quickstart is not Windows-specific and provide any needed platform-specific tips.
