Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific tools (Excel, Notepad), using Windows UI terminology (e.g., 'File > Save As...'), and showing screenshots from Windows applications. There are no instructions or examples for performing equivalent steps on Linux or macOS, such as converting Excel files to tab-delimited text or viewing/editing files. The tutorial assumes access to Microsoft Excel and Notepad, which are not standard on Linux systems, and does not mention or show how to use cross-platform or Linux-native tools for these tasks.
Recommendations:
- Provide alternative instructions for Linux and macOS users, such as using LibreOffice Calc or command-line tools (e.g., csvkit, awk, or ssconvert) to convert Excel files to tab-delimited text.
- Include screenshots or command-line examples for Linux/macOS environments alongside Windows examples.
- Use cross-platform terminology (e.g., 'text editor' instead of 'Notepad') and avoid assuming the presence of Windows-only applications.
- Mention that Visual Studio Code is available on all major platforms, and suggest alternatives (e.g., Vim, Emacs, Sublime Text) for users who may not use VS Code.
- Where UI navigation is described (e.g., 'File > Save As...'), clarify how to perform the equivalent action in LibreOffice or via command line.
- Explicitly state that the tutorial is platform-agnostic and provide parity in setup and data preparation steps for all major operating systems.
