Summary
The tutorial demonstrates a mild Windows bias, particularly in the data preparation steps. It exclusively references Microsoft Excel and Notepad for converting and viewing data files, and describes UI actions (e.g., 'File > Save As...') in a way that is specific to Windows applications. There are no instructions or examples for performing these steps on Linux or macOS, nor are alternative tools mentioned. The recommended IDE is Visual Studio Code, which is cross-platform, but the workflow and screenshots assume a Windows environment.
Recommendations
  • Provide alternative instructions for Linux and macOS users for converting Excel files to tab-delimited text, such as using LibreOffice Calc, csvkit, or command-line tools like 'ssconvert' or 'in2csv'.
  • Mention and show examples of opening and editing text files using cross-platform editors (e.g., VS Code, nano, vim, gedit) instead of only Notepad.
  • Avoid UI instructions that are specific to Windows applications (like Excel's 'Save As' dialog) or supplement them with equivalent steps for LibreOffice or command-line tools.
  • Include screenshots or notes that reflect cross-platform usage, or explicitly state that the steps apply regardless of OS, with links to relevant Linux/macOS resources.
  • Clarify that Visual Studio Code is available on all major platforms and that any suitable editor or IDE can be used.
