Typing Indicator Event for ACS Chat in .NET SDK

This is a question about the Typing Indicator functionality specifically in ACS when using the .NET SDK. I have consumed all other events. I am aware that the typing indicator event is included with the 'Real-Time Events' package which is not yet available on .NET. The chart below, however, lists "Get notified when participants are actively typing a message in a chat thread" as available under Core Features across all SDKs. The only documentation I can find is regarding "SendTypingNotification" and I can't find any documentation as to how to consume this event (apart from the Real-Time Events which are marked as not available for .NET).

Can someone advise as to where I can consume this event correctly (without yet having access to the Real-Time Events as per JS/iOS/Android)?

Thanks!

@JustinRogowski-5850 - quick update:

The doc, as you pointed out, is not accurate. The typing indicator functionality is only available through 'real-time notifications' which is only supported for JavaScript/Android/iOS currently.

I pushed an update to the table you shared to reflect that Java, .NET, and Python are not supported for this feature.

Thank you for the feedback!

As of now we are using GetMessages API to display incoming messages to users and excluded 'com.microsoft', module: 'trouter-client-android' dependency to resovle the duplicate issue but not able to get real time notifications which is blocking us on showing TypingIndicator and ReadReceipt. Is there any work around for this?
