Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias primarily in the 'Run your SPA application' section, where only PowerShell commands are shown for running the app (e.g., 'npm install', 'npm ./index.js'), and no Linux/macOS shell equivalents are provided. Throughout the rest of the document, instructions are generally cross-platform, but the explicit use of PowerShell syntax and lack of Linux-specific notes or examples may confuse or exclude non-Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Provide both Windows (PowerShell/cmd) and Linux/macOS (bash/sh) command examples wherever commands are shown, especially in the 'Run your SPA application' section.
  • Use neutral, cross-platform terminology such as 'terminal' or 'command line' instead of 'command shell', and clarify that the instructions apply to all major operating systems.
  • Where file paths or commands may differ between platforms, explicitly note the differences or provide side-by-side examples.
  • Test and document the startup commands for Linux/macOS (e.g., 'node index.js' instead of 'npm ./index.js', which is not standard on any platform).
  • Consider adding a prerequisites note confirming that the instructions are valid for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and link to platform-specific Node.js installation guides if appropriate.
