Windows First Missing Linux Example
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias by listing Windows as a primary supported platform (with a dedicated .NET SDK), while Linux is only mentioned in the context of browser support for the JavaScript SDK. There are no Linux-native SDKs, tools, or examples provided, and Linux is not included as a first-class platform in feature tables or SDK links. Linux users are limited to using the web SDK in supported browsers, with no mention of parity for native development or guidance for Linux environments.
Recommendations:
  • Explicitly mention Linux support (or lack thereof) in the SDK links and feature tables, clarifying options for Linux developers.
  • If native Linux SDKs are unavailable, provide guidance or workarounds for Linux users (e.g., using the Web SDK in Electron or other cross-platform frameworks).
  • Add Linux-specific examples or notes where relevant, especially in sections discussing platform support, installation, and development environments.
  • Ensure that Linux is not only mentioned as a secondary browser platform but is considered in parity with Windows and macOS in all relevant documentation tables and sections.
  • If Windows-specific features exist, clearly document their absence or alternatives for Linux.

Powershell Heavy Windows Tools Missing Linux Example Windows First
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by providing only PowerShell commands for critical setup steps (such as creating Teams resource accounts and associating them with Communication Services), referencing Windows-centric tools (PowerShell, Set-CsOnlineApplicationInstance), and omitting equivalent Linux/bash/CLI instructions. The DevTunnel setup also uses PowerShell syntax without clarifying cross-platform support. No Linux or macOS alternatives are mentioned, and the workflow assumes familiarity with Windows tooling.
Recommendations:
  • Provide equivalent bash/CLI commands for all PowerShell examples, especially for Teams resource account creation and association steps.
  • Explicitly state whether the PowerShell commands can be run on Linux/macOS via PowerShell Core, or provide alternatives using Azure CLI, Microsoft Graph API, or REST where possible.
  • For DevTunnel setup, clarify if the tool and commands are cross-platform, and if so, provide examples in both PowerShell and bash syntax.
  • Add a note in the prerequisites about platform compatibility for all required tools, and link to installation instructions for Linux/macOS users.
  • Where only Windows tooling is available, acknowledge this limitation and suggest workarounds or alternatives for non-Windows users.

Windows First Windows Tools
Summary:
The documentation exhibits a mild Windows bias in the prerequisites section, where the Node.js installation is suggested via the MSI installer (a Windows-specific method), and the link to creating a Communication Services resource uses a 'platform-azp' pivot with a 'windows' tab by default. However, the rest of the guide uses cross-platform tools (Node.js, npm, Azure CLI) and generic terminal commands, making it largely platform-agnostic.
Recommendations:
  • In the prerequisites, mention cross-platform installation methods for Node.js (e.g., using package managers like apt, yum, brew, or direct downloads for macOS/Linux) alongside the MSI installer.
  • Ensure that links to Azure portal/resource creation do not default to Windows-specific pivots or tabs; provide clear parity for Linux and macOS users.
  • Explicitly state that all terminal/console commands work on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and clarify any platform-specific differences if they exist.
  • Wherever a tool or pattern is mentioned (such as 'command window'), use neutral terms like 'terminal' or 'command-line interface'.

Windows First
Summary:
The documentation page displays a subtle Windows bias by referencing Windows in the authentication link (../quickstarts/identity/access-tokens.md?tabs=windows&pivots=platform-azportal) as the default or first tab, rather than providing a cross-platform or Linux example. However, there are no explicit PowerShell-heavy examples, exclusive mention of Windows tools, or missing Linux examples in the main content. The documentation is otherwise platform-neutral and covers web, iOS, and Android parity.
Recommendations:
  • Ensure that authentication and other platform-neutral features provide Linux and macOS examples or tabs alongside Windows, or default to a cross-platform approach.
  • Wherever a link or tab is provided (such as for authentication), offer parity for Linux (e.g., Bash, CLI) and macOS, not just Windows.
  • Review all quickstart and how-to links to confirm that Linux users are not required to adapt Windows-specific instructions.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform compatibility in sections that are not inherently OS-specific.

Windows First
Summary:
The documentation page exhibits a mild 'windows_first' bias. In the prerequisites section, the link to creating an Azure Communication Services resource uses a URL parameter '?tabs=windows', suggesting Windows as the default or primary platform. No explicit Linux or cross-platform instructions or examples are provided, but the rest of the content (Java, Maven, terminal usage) is generally platform-agnostic.
Recommendations:
  • Ensure that links to Azure documentation use neutral or cross-platform tabs by default (e.g., '?tabs=linux' or no tab parameter).
  • Explicitly mention that the steps work on both Windows and Linux, or provide notes for any platform-specific differences.
  • If there are platform-specific quickstart pivots (e.g., for creating resources), provide both Windows and Linux options or clarify that the instructions are cross-platform.
  • Review all linked quickstarts to ensure Linux parity and avoid defaulting to Windows in tabbed instructions.

Powershell Heavy Windows Tools Missing Linux Example
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing PowerShell cmdlets and the Teams Admin Center (TAC) portal as the only methods for configuring emergency calling policies, without mentioning or providing Linux/macOS alternatives. There are no examples or guidance for Linux users, and the documentation assumes the use of Windows-centric tools for administration.
Recommendations:
  • Explicitly mention if Teams administration and configuration tasks (such as policy assignment) can be performed using cross-platform tools or REST APIs, and provide links or examples for Linux/macOS users.
  • If PowerShell is required, clarify whether PowerShell Core (pwsh), which is cross-platform, is supported and provide installation instructions for Linux/macOS.
  • Include alternative command-line or scripting examples for Linux environments, or acknowledge any current limitations for non-Windows users.
  • Reference the Teams Admin Center web portal as a cross-platform option, if applicable, and clarify any features that are only available on Windows.

Windows First
Summary:
The documentation provides sample log data where the only explicit desktop OS mentioned is Windows ("osVersion": "Windows 10.0.17763 Arch: x64"). Other examples include Darwin (macOS) and Android, but there are no Linux examples. Windows is the only desktop OS shown in the P2P call sample, and Linux is not mentioned anywhere. There are no command-line or tool usage examples, so no PowerShell or Windows tool bias is present, but the log samples show a subtle preference for Windows as a desktop environment.
Recommendations:
  • Include at least one sample log entry where 'osVersion' reflects a Linux distribution (e.g., 'Ubuntu 20.04', 'Linux 5.15.0-60-generic').
  • In the data definitions, clarify that 'osVersion' can include Linux, macOS, Windows, Android, and iOS, and provide representative values for each.
  • If possible, add a FAQ or note about how logs appear for Linux clients/endpoints.
  • Review future documentation and samples to ensure Linux is represented equally alongside Windows and macOS in both log samples and descriptive text.

Windows Tools Missing Linux Example
Summary:
The documentation is generally platform-neutral and focused on Android, but there is a notable Windows bias in the mitigation steps for the 'noMicrophoneDevicesAvailable' diagnostic, which references enabling a microphone from the 'device manager'—a Windows-specific tool. There are no Linux-specific tools, commands, or mitigation steps mentioned, and no Linux examples are provided for device troubleshooting.
Recommendations:
  • When referencing device troubleshooting steps, provide Linux equivalents alongside Windows instructions. For example, suggest checking microphone availability using 'arecord -l' or verifying permissions in ALSA/PulseAudio on Linux.
  • Avoid referencing Windows-specific tools (like 'device manager') without mentioning alternatives for other platforms.
  • Include links or brief instructions for common Linux desktop environments (e.g., GNOME, KDE) on how to enable or troubleshoot audio devices.
  • Where possible, use platform-agnostic language or provide parallel steps for Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Windows First Powershell Heavy Windows Tools Missing Linux Example
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by providing troubleshooting steps and code examples that assume the use of Windows-specific tools (Visual Studio, NuGet Package Manager Console, PowerShell) without mentioning or providing alternatives for Linux or macOS users. Instructions for package installation and Microsoft Entra configuration are exclusively given using PowerShell commands, and there are no corresponding CLI or cross-platform instructions. This may hinder users on non-Windows platforms from following the guidance effectively.
Recommendations:
  • Provide equivalent instructions for Linux/macOS environments, such as using the .NET CLI (dotnet add package) for NuGet package installation instead of only referencing Visual Studio and the Package Manager Console.
  • Include Azure CLI or Microsoft Graph CLI examples for Microsoft Entra ID administrative tasks, not just PowerShell.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform alternatives and note any platform-specific limitations or differences.
  • Reorder or parallelize instructions so that Windows and Linux/macOS guidance are presented together, rather than Windows-first.
  • Add a section or callout for users on non-Windows platforms, linking to relevant setup or troubleshooting resources.

Windows Tools Powershell Heavy Windows First
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Microsoft Teams PowerShell cmdlets (e.g., Set-CsTeamsAcsFederationConfiguration, Set-CsExternalAccessPolicy) for tenant configuration, without mentioning or providing alternatives for Linux or cross-platform environments. The prerequisite and authorization steps assume access to Windows-centric tools and administrative patterns, and PowerShell is referenced as the primary method for configuration. No Linux-native or cross-platform CLI alternatives are discussed, and the order of presentation puts Windows tooling first.
Recommendations:
  • Provide equivalent Azure CLI or REST API instructions for tenant-level and user policy configuration steps, so Linux and macOS users can follow along without relying on PowerShell.
  • Explicitly mention whether the PowerShell modules used (MicrosoftTeams, SkypeForBusiness) are available and supported on non-Windows platforms, and provide installation guidance for those environments if possible.
  • Add notes or links to cross-platform tools or scripts for administrative steps, or clarify if certain steps must be performed on Windows.
  • Where possible, present cross-platform or OS-neutral methods (such as Graph API or Azure Portal) before or alongside Windows-specific tools.
  • Include example commands for Linux/macOS shells (bash, zsh) where relevant, especially for steps involving API calls or scripting.

The 'Run the code' section provides build/run instructions for .NET CLI, Visual Studio, and Visual Studio Code, but omits any Linux-specific guidance or examples (e.g., bash shell, Linux package dependencies, or cross-platform considerations). Visual Studio, a Windows-centric IDE, is mentioned before Visual Studio Code, which is more cross-platform.
Recommendations:
  • Add explicit instructions and examples for Linux users, such as installing .NET SDK on Linux, using bash/zsh shell commands, and troubleshooting common Linux-specific issues.
  • Include alternative code samples or references for other supported SDKs (e.g., Python, Java, Node.js) to broaden platform inclusivity.
  • When listing development tools, mention cross-platform editors (e.g., Visual Studio Code) before Windows-only tools (e.g., Visual Studio), and clarify which instructions apply to which OS.
  • Provide guidance on running the code in Linux terminal environments, including any required dependencies or environment variables.
  • Where screenshots or UI references are shown (e.g., Azure Portal), clarify if the experience is the same across OSes or note any differences.

Windows First Powershell Heavy Missing Linux Example
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.

Summary:
The documentation provides terminal/command window instructions and virtual environment activation commands only in the Windows format (e.g., .\Scripts\activate), with no equivalent Linux/macOS commands (e.g., source ./bin/activate). This may confuse or hinder users on non-Windows platforms. No explicit Windows tools or PowerShell commands are used, but the lack of Linux/macOS parity is a notable bias.
Recommendations:
  • For every command-line instruction, provide both Windows and Linux/macOS versions, especially for virtual environment activation (e.g., '.\Scripts\activate' for Windows, 'source ./bin/activate' for Linux/macOS).
  • Use tabbed or side-by-side code blocks to show platform-specific commands where they differ.
  • Explicitly mention that the instructions apply to both Windows and Linux/macOS, and clarify any platform-specific steps.
  • Review the documentation for other subtle Windows-first assumptions, such as path separators or references to 'command window' instead of 'terminal'.

Powershell Heavy Windows Tools Missing Linux Example Windows First
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: it provides only PowerShell commands for administrative tasks (such as creating a service principal), assumes the use of Windows tools (PowerShell, Install-Module), and does not mention or provide equivalent instructions for Linux or macOS environments. There are no CLI or cross-platform alternatives for key steps, and the troubleshooting guidance is Windows-centric.
Recommendations:
  • Provide equivalent Azure CLI or Microsoft Graph CLI commands for all PowerShell examples, ensuring Linux and macOS users can follow the same steps.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform alternatives where PowerShell is referenced (e.g., 'You can also use Azure CLI or Microsoft Graph CLI on Linux/macOS').
  • Add notes or sections for Linux/macOS users, including installation and usage instructions for required tools.
  • Where possible, use platform-agnostic language and avoid assuming the user is on Windows.
  • Include troubleshooting steps for non-Windows environments, such as how to install required modules or authenticate using CLI tools on Linux/macOS.

Windows First
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a subtle Windows bias by listing Windows command-line environments (cmd, PowerShell) before Bash when instructing users to create a new C# application. No explicit Linux or cross-platform examples are missing, but the ordering implicitly prioritizes Windows environments.
Recommendations:
  • List Bash before or alongside cmd and PowerShell when mentioning console windows, e.g., 'In a console window (such as Bash, cmd, or PowerShell)...'
  • Explicitly state that all commands and code samples work identically on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • Consider adding a short section or note confirming cross-platform compatibility, especially for Linux users.
  • Where relevant, provide example terminal commands using both Windows and Linux conventions (e.g., path separators, environment variable syntax) if differences exist.

Missing Linux Example Windows Tools Powershell Heavy
Summary:
The documentation is heavily focused on .NET and C# code samples, which are most commonly associated with Windows development environments. There are no examples or instructions for Linux or cross-platform usage, such as using the Azure Communication Services SDK in other languages (e.g., Python, Java, Node.js) or on non-Windows operating systems. Additionally, the prerequisite to download the .NET SDK and the lack of mention of Linux-specific tools or shell commands further reinforce a Windows-centric bias.
Recommendations:
  • Provide equivalent code samples in other popular languages supported by Azure Communication Services SDK (e.g., Python, Java, JavaScript/Node.js) to demonstrate cross-platform compatibility.
  • Include instructions or notes on how to set up the .NET SDK and run the samples on Linux and macOS, not just Windows.
  • Mention and provide examples of using CLI tools (such as Azure CLI) and shell commands that work across platforms, rather than focusing solely on C# and .NET.
  • Explicitly state the cross-platform nature of the SDKs and provide troubleshooting or environment setup tips for Linux users.
  • If possible, add a section or callout highlighting any platform-specific considerations or differences.

Windows First Powershell Heavy Missing Linux Example
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias by listing Windows-specific consoles (cmd, PowerShell) before Bash, and by not providing any Linux- or macOS-specific instructions or examples. All terminal commands are generic, but there is no explicit mention of Linux or macOS environments beyond the brief mention of Bash. There are no Linux-specific troubleshooting tips, environment variable setup instructions, or editor recommendations, and the documentation implicitly assumes familiarity with Windows patterns.
Recommendations:
  • Explicitly mention Linux and macOS as supported platforms wherever relevant, not just in passing.
  • Provide Linux/macOS-specific instructions for setting environment variables (e.g., export VAR=VALUE) alongside Windows (set VAR=VALUE or $env:VAR=VALUE in PowerShell).
  • List Bash (or other Unix shells) first or equally when mentioning console options, e.g., 'in a console window (such as Bash, cmd, or PowerShell)'.
  • Include notes on using popular Linux/macOS editors (e.g., nano, vim, VS Code) for editing files, not just generic 'text editor'.
  • Add troubleshooting tips or notes for common Linux/macOS issues (e.g., permissions, .NET SDK installation differences).
  • Ensure all screenshots, if any, are cross-platform or provide both Windows and Linux/macOS examples.

Windows First Missing Linux Example
Summary:
The documentation shows mild Windows bias by listing Windows-specific instructions and links before Linux/macOS equivalents. The Azure CLI installation link points only to the Windows installation page, and the environment variable section lists Windows instructions first, with Linux and macOS following. There is no direct Linux-specific Azure CLI installation link, and the Linux environment variable instructions assume the use of .bash_profile, which is not universal.
Recommendations:
  • Provide platform-agnostic or parallel links for Azure CLI installation (e.g., include links for Windows, Linux, and macOS).
  • Present environment variable instructions in a more balanced order, such as using tabs or listing Linux/macOS first in some cases.
  • Clarify that .bash_profile may not exist on all Linux distributions and suggest alternatives (e.g., .bashrc, .profile).
  • Ensure all examples and instructions are equally detailed for all platforms.
  • Consider using a platform selection tab for all setup steps, not just for environment variables.

Windows First Powershell Heavy Missing Linux Example
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias. While it mentions Bash alongside cmd and PowerShell as possible consoles, it consistently uses Windows-centric terminology and tools first (e.g., 'cmd, PowerShell, or Bash'), and all command-line examples use the generic 'dotnet' CLI without clarifying any Linux-specific differences. There are no explicit Linux or macOS-specific instructions, troubleshooting, or environment notes, and no mention of package managers or shell conventions common to Linux users. The documentation assumes parity but does not verify or illustrate it.
Recommendations:
  • Explicitly state that all commands work on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and provide any OS-specific caveats if they exist.
  • When listing console options, rotate or randomize the order (e.g., 'Bash, cmd, or PowerShell') or mention that any terminal is supported.
  • Add Linux/macOS-specific notes where appropriate (e.g., file path conventions, permissions, or dependency installation).
  • Include at least one example of running commands in a Linux terminal (e.g., screenshots or explicit Bash prompt).

  • Provide explicit Linux/macOS instructions or notes where setup or tooling may differ (e.g., for .NET, DevTunnels CLI).
  • Ensure prerequisite links include Linux/macOS tabs or clarify cross-platform compatibility.
  • Mention that the sample can be run on Linux/macOS if applicable, and provide any additional steps required.
  • Add troubleshooting notes for common Linux/macOS issues (e.g., permissions, port binding).

Page-Level Analysis

Powershell Heavy Windows First Missing Linux Example Windows Tools
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing multiple PowerShell-specific examples for resource cleanup, referencing Windows command-line conventions (e.g., 'PS C:\>'), and omitting equivalent Linux/bash commands. Azure CLI is mentioned, but PowerShell commands are more prominent and appear first for some tasks. There is no explicit Linux/bash example for deleting Email Communication Services or Domain resources.
Recommendations:
  • Provide equivalent bash/Azure CLI commands for all resource management and cleanup tasks, especially for deleting Email Communication Services and Domain resources.
  • Ensure that examples are presented in a platform-neutral order or grouped by platform, rather than prioritizing Windows/PowerShell.
  • Avoid using Windows-specific command prompts (e.g., 'PS C:\>') unless also providing bash equivalents (e.g., '$').
  • Explicitly mention Linux/macOS compatibility where possible, and provide guidance for non-Windows users.
  • Consider adding a table or section summarizing commands for each platform (PowerShell, Azure CLI on bash, Python, etc.) to improve parity and discoverability.

Page-Level Analysis

Missing Linux Example Windows First
Summary:
The documentation page exhibits a mild Windows bias. The prerequisites link to a resource creation guide with a 'tabs=windows' parameter, suggesting a Windows-first approach. There are no explicit Linux-specific instructions or examples, and the sample project is .NET-based, which is cross-platform but often associated with Windows. No PowerShell or Windows-only command-line tools are shown, but there is also a lack of explicit Linux/macOS parity in instructions or troubleshooting.
Recommendations:
  • Update prerequisite links to use platform-neutral or multi-tab URLs (e.g., remove '?tabs=windows' or add Linux/macOS tabs).
  • Explicitly mention that the sample can be run on Linux/macOS as well as Windows, and provide any necessary platform-specific notes.
  • If there are any platform-specific steps (e.g., for dotnet or DevTunnels), provide Linux/macOS command-line examples or troubleshooting notes.
  • Ensure all referenced quickstarts and guides have Linux/macOS parity and are linked appropriately.

Page-Level Analysis

Windows First Missing Linux Example
Summary:
The documentation page exhibits a Windows-first bias, particularly in the quickstart and example links, which predominantly use 'windows' or 'uwp' tabs and pivots. There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform command-line examples, nor are Linux tools or environments mentioned. This could make it harder for Linux developers to follow or feel included.
Recommendations:
  • Provide Linux-specific examples and instructions alongside Windows ones, especially in quickstart links and code samples.
  • Use neutral, cross-platform language and tabs (such as 'web', 'nodejs', or 'dotnet') instead of defaulting to 'windows' or 'uwp'.
  • Explicitly mention Linux compatibility and any required steps for Linux environments.
  • Where platform-specific instructions are necessary, present Windows and Linux instructions in parallel.
  • Audit linked quickstarts and tutorials to ensure Linux users are not excluded or forced to adapt Windows-centric instructions.

Page-Level Analysis

Windows First Missing Linux Example
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows-first bias in the prerequisites section, where instructions for installing the Azure CLI are provided only for Windows, with no mention of Linux or macOS alternatives. The link to create a Communication Services Resource also uses a 'tabs=windows' parameter, further reinforcing the Windows-centric approach. No Linux-specific instructions or parity are provided, especially in the setup and tooling sections.
Recommendations:
  • Provide installation instructions and links for Azure CLI on Linux and macOS alongside Windows, or use a tabbed interface to allow users to select their OS.
  • Remove or supplement 'tabs=windows' in resource creation links with Linux/macOS equivalents or a generic/default tab.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform compatibility in the prerequisites and setup sections.
  • Wherever CLI or tooling is referenced, ensure that examples and links are not Windows-specific unless there is a technical reason.

Windows First Missing Linux Example
Summary:
The documentation provides platform-specific instructions for Android (Java), iOS (Swift), and Windows (C#), but omits any mention of Linux or cross-platform desktop environments. The Windows example is included as the only desktop OS, with no Linux equivalent or guidance for Linux users.
Recommendations:
  • Add a Linux-specific section or example for log file retrieval, especially for scenarios where the SDK or application may be run on Linux desktops.
  • If the SDK does not support Linux, explicitly state this limitation to avoid confusion.
  • Consider including cross-platform .NET Core examples if applicable, and clarify OS compatibility.
  • Ensure parity in documentation by providing equivalent instructions for all major desktop operating systems (Windows, macOS, Linux) where possible.

Page-Level Analysis

Powershell Heavy Windows First Missing Linux Example
Summary:
The documentation is heavily biased toward Windows and PowerShell users. All code samples are written in PowerShell, and the instructions assume the use of PowerShell as the scripting environment. Installation links and prerequisite checks are Windows-centric, and there are no equivalent Bash or Linux shell examples. This makes it difficult for Linux or macOS users to follow the guide without significant adaptation.
Recommendations:
  • Provide parallel Bash (Linux/macOS) script examples for all PowerShell commands, especially for Azure CLI usage, variable initialization, and scripting logic.
  • Include installation instructions and links for Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell for Linux and macOS, not just Windows.
  • When referencing command-line environments, mention both Windows (PowerShell/Command Prompt) and Linux/macOS (Bash/Terminal) explicitly.
  • Add a section or callouts that highlight any differences or considerations for Linux/macOS users.
  • Consider using cross-platform scripting approaches (e.g., pure Azure CLI in Bash) for automation tasks, or at least provide both PowerShell and Bash versions side by side.

Page-Level Analysis

Windows First Missing Linux Example
Summary:
The documentation is heavily oriented toward .NET and Azure Functions in C#, which are cross-platform, but the workflow and examples assume development in Visual Studio Code and do not mention Linux-specific tools or workflows. There are no explicit PowerShell or Windows-only commands, but the guidance and examples are implicitly Windows-centric (e.g., referencing pressing F5 in VS Code, using .NET, and not mentioning Linux shell equivalents or alternative editors). There are no Linux-specific instructions, troubleshooting, or environment setup details.
Recommendations:
  • Include explicit instructions for running and testing the Azure Function on Linux (e.g., using the Azure Functions Core Tools in a bash shell, or running in a Docker container).
  • Provide alternative examples for installing dependencies (e.g., using apt-get or yum for required tools, or dotnet CLI commands in a Linux terminal).
  • Mention and show how to use editors commonly used on Linux (such as Vim, Emacs, or JetBrains Rider) or clarify that Visual Studio Code is cross-platform.
  • Add notes on environment variable configuration for Linux shells (e.g., export commands, .env files) instead of only referencing Windows environment variable patterns.
  • Clarify that all steps can be performed on Linux and provide troubleshooting tips for common Linux-specific issues.

Page-Level Analysis

Powershell Heavy Windows Tools Missing Linux Example Windows First
Summary:
The documentation shows evidence of Windows bias, primarily through the use of Windows-specific tools and patterns. The prerequisite section requires Visual Studio (a Windows-centric IDE) and the package installation example uses PowerShell syntax. There are no Linux/macOS equivalents or alternatives mentioned for development environment setup or package installation. The documentation assumes a Windows development environment and does not provide parity for Linux users.
Recommendations:
  • Include instructions for installing the .NET SDK and the Azure Communication Services Chat SDK using cross-platform tools (e.g., dotnet CLI) and show command-line examples in bash/zsh as well as PowerShell.
  • Mention Visual Studio Code as an alternative to Visual Studio, and provide setup steps for Linux/macOS users.
  • Add explicit notes or sections for Linux/macOS users in the prerequisites, including any required dependencies or differences in environment setup.
  • Avoid using PowerShell-specific syntax for generic .NET package installation; prefer the dotnet CLI, which is cross-platform.
  • Where possible, provide side-by-side or clearly marked examples for both Windows and Linux/macOS environments.
