Summary:
The documentation provides environment variable setup instructions for Windows (cmd and PowerShell) before Linux/macOS, and includes explicit PowerShell and Windows Command Prompt examples. While Linux/macOS examples are present, Windows instructions are consistently listed first, and there is more detail about Windows-specific behaviors (such as needing to restart the command prompt after setx). No Linux tools are omitted, but the ordering and emphasis favor Windows users.
Recommendations:
- Alternate the order of platform instructions so that Linux/macOS examples are sometimes presented first, or group all platform instructions together without prioritizing Windows.
- Use platform-agnostic language where possible (e.g., 'Set the environment variable using your shell').
- Add notes about shell session persistence for both Windows and Linux/macOS (e.g., mention that 'export' only affects the current shell session).
- Consider using tabbed or collapsible sections for platform-specific instructions to avoid implicit prioritization.
- Ensure parity in detail for all platforms (e.g., if you mention restarting the shell for setx on Windows, mention that 'export' is session-scoped on Linux/macOS).
