Summary
The documentation page demonstrates mild Windows bias. In the 'Run the sample web app' section, the Windows instructions are presented after Linux and macOS, but the Windows-specific command ('py' instead of 'python') is called out. Additionally, the note about path length limitations ("Extract the sample file to a folder where the total length of the path is 260 or fewer characters") is a Windows-specific constraint, but it is not explicitly labeled as such, potentially confusing Linux/macOS users for whom this limitation does not apply.
Recommendations
  • Clearly label Windows-specific instructions and constraints, such as the path length limitation, and provide context for non-Windows users.
  • Where possible, provide parity in examples and troubleshooting notes for Linux/macOS (e.g., mention that the path length limitation does not apply on those platforms).
  • Consider listing Linux/macOS instructions first if the audience is cross-platform, or alternate the order in different sections.
  • Ensure that any platform-specific commands (e.g., 'py' vs 'python') are explained, and provide guidance for users who may not have 'py' installed on Windows.
