Summary
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias. The WCF Relay feature is described as legacy and is tightly coupled to Windows technologies (WCF, .NET Framework), with all examples and quick starts for WCF Relay focused on Windows-centric tools and frameworks. The Hybrid Connections feature is more cross-platform, with examples for .NET, Node.js, and Java, but the documentation consistently lists .NET/.NET Framework examples first, and there are no explicit Linux or cross-platform command-line examples (e.g., Bash, curl, or Linux service setup). There is no mention of Linux-specific tools, nor are there instructions or examples for Linux environments, especially for the WCF Relay section.
Recommendations
- Add explicit Linux quick starts and examples, such as using Bash, curl, or Linux-based services for Hybrid Connections.
- Include instructions for setting up and running Azure Relay clients and listeners on Linux environments.
- Provide parity in example ordering (e.g., alternate listing Node.js or Java examples first, or group by platform).
- Clarify which features are Windows-only (WCF Relay) and which are cross-platform, and provide guidance for Linux users on alternatives.
- Add a table or section comparing Windows and Linux support for each feature, including any limitations or workarounds.
