Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a clear Windows bias. All shell and environment variable examples use PowerShell syntax exclusively, with no Bash or Linux equivalents provided. The instructions for creating a Python project, installing packages, and setting environment variables are all shown in PowerShell, which is native to Windows. There are no examples or guidance for Linux or macOS users, such as using Bash, sh, or other common Unix shells. This may confuse or exclude users on non-Windows platforms.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Bash/Linux/macOS shell commands alongside PowerShell examples for creating directories, files, and setting environment variables.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform compatibility and note any differences in command syntax between Windows and Linux/macOS.
  • Add a section or callout for Linux/macOS users, including examples using Bash (e.g., 'export VAR=value') and file creation commands ('touch demo.py').
  • Consider using generic Python code for file creation (e.g., using open('demo.py', 'w')) to avoid shell-specific instructions.
  • Where PowerShell is used, clarify that it is for Windows and provide the alternative for other platforms.
