Summary
The documentation provides code examples for multiple languages, including PowerShell, which is primarily a Windows-centric scripting language. PowerShell is given equal footing with other languages in example tabs, and Windows-specific tools/cmdlets (e.g., Get-Date, New-Guid) are referenced. However, there is no evidence of Windows-first ordering, nor are Linux tools or shell scripting languages (e.g., Bash) mentioned or provided as alternatives. The documentation does not address Linux-specific patterns or tools, and PowerShell is the only shell scripting language included.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux shell scripting examples (e.g., Bash) where relevant, especially for scenarios where PowerShell is shown.
  • Clarify that PowerShell examples are primarily for Windows users, and suggest alternatives for Linux users.
  • Include notes or guidance for Linux environments, such as differences in environment variable handling, file system access, or common scripting patterns.
  • Consider reordering or grouping language examples to avoid implying parity between Windows-centric and cross-platform languages.
  • Explicitly mention platform compatibility for each language example, helping users choose the most appropriate option for their OS.
