Howto Variant Feature Flags Python

Bias Analysis

Bias Types:

⚠️ windows_first

⚠️ powershell_heavy

⚠️ missing_linux_example

Summary:

The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas. The prerequisite section links only to Windows-specific Python setup documentation, omitting Linux or macOS equivalents. When describing how to activate a Python virtual environment, only the Windows command ('.\venv\Scripts\Activate') is shown, with no mention of the Linux/macOS alternative ('source venv/bin/activate'). In the section on setting environment variables, Windows Command Prompt and PowerShell instructions are provided before the Linux/macOS example, and the Linux/macOS export command is missing a closing quote, which could cause confusion.

Recommendations:

Provide links to Python installation/setup documentation for Linux and macOS alongside the Windows link in the prerequisites.
When showing how to activate a Python virtual environment, include both Windows ('.\venv\Scripts\Activate') and Linux/macOS ('source venv/bin/activate') commands, clearly labeled.
In the environment variable section, present all platform instructions together, or rotate the order (e.g., Linux/macOS first sometimes) to avoid always privileging Windows.
Carefully check Linux/macOS command syntax for accuracy (e.g., ensure quotes are closed in export commands).
Wherever possible, use cross-platform commands or note platform differences explicitly to ensure parity and clarity for all users.
