Bias Analysis
Bias Types:
⚠️
windows_first
⚠️
powershell_heavy
Summary:
The documentation generally maintains cross-platform parity, but there is a subtle Windows bias in the ordering and presentation of command-line examples. In several places, Windows (cmd) examples are presented alongside or before Bash, and PowerShell/CMD tabs are always present even when not strictly necessary. However, Linux-specific tools, patterns, or troubleshooting are not missing, and Linux is treated as a first-class citizen in most technical content.
Recommendations:
- Ensure that Bash (Linux/macOS) examples are always presented first or at least equally with Windows CMD/PowerShell examples, especially in tabbed code blocks.
- Where possible, clarify that all CLI commands work identically on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and highlight any OS-specific differences.
- Consider including explicit Linux/macOS troubleshooting tips or environment notes where relevant (e.g., JAVA_HOME setup, file path conventions).
- Avoid defaulting to Windows-centric terminology such as 'command prompt' without mentioning 'terminal' or 'shell' for Linux/macOS users.
- Audit the order of tool recommendations (e.g., Visual Studio Code, IntelliJ, Eclipse) to ensure no implicit prioritization of Windows-preferred tools.
- Add a brief section or callout at the top confirming full Linux/macOS support for all development workflows described.
