Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
windows_first
powershell_heavy
Summary
The documentation provides environment variable setup instructions with Windows Command Prompt and PowerShell examples before macOS and Linux, indicating a 'windows_first' bias. Additionally, both Windows Command Prompt and PowerShell are given separate, detailed sections, while Unix-like systems (macOS and Linux) are grouped together and presented after Windows, which is a common 'powershell_heavy' and 'windows_first' pattern. However, Linux and macOS instructions are present, and the rest of the tutorial is cross-platform.
Recommendations
  • Present all platform instructions (Windows Command Prompt, PowerShell, macOS, Linux) in a tabbed or parallel format, without prioritizing Windows over others.
  • Group macOS and Linux separately if there are meaningful differences, or clarify when instructions are identical.
  • Consider leading with a neutral, cross-platform example (e.g., using .NET CLI or environment variable setting in code) before platform-specific instructions.
  • Explicitly state that all steps are applicable on Windows, macOS, and Linux, and avoid language that implies Windows is the default or primary platform.
