Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All command-line examples for project creation, file creation, environment variable setup, and program execution use PowerShell syntax, with no equivalent Bash or Linux/macOS shell commands provided. Windows tools and patterns (e.g., PowerShell's New-Item, $Env:VAR) are used exclusively, and Linux alternatives are not mentioned or shown. This may hinder Linux/macOS users, who form a significant portion of the Java development community.
Recommendations:
- For every PowerShell example, provide an equivalent Bash/Linux/macOS shell example side-by-side or in a tabbed interface.
- When showing environment variable setup, include both PowerShell ($Env:VAR=) and Bash (export VAR=) syntax.
- For file creation, show both New-Item (PowerShell) and touch (Bash) commands.
- For running Java programs, show both Windows (java .\demo.java) and Linux/macOS (java ./demo.java) command syntax.
- Explicitly state that the instructions apply to both Windows and Linux/macOS, and highlight any OS-specific differences.
- Consider using cross-platform-neutral language and tools where possible, or at least avoid presenting Windows as the default or only option.
