Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows instructions, examples, and paths are consistently presented first in installation sections, with Windows-centric tools and folder structures (e.g., C:\Program Files (x86)\...) used as defaults. UI screenshots and step-by-step guides are primarily for Windows environments, with Linux instructions often appearing after Windows or in less detail. Windows-specific concepts (e.g., VSS provider, antivirus exclusions in C:\ProgramData) are highlighted, while Linux equivalents are not discussed or are less emphasized. The use of Windows command prompt and folder paths as the primary example throughout the document reinforces a Windows-first perspective.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux and Windows instructions in parallel, giving equal prominence and detail to both platforms.
  • Include Linux UI screenshots and step-by-step guides where applicable, not just Windows.
  • Use neutral language and folder paths in generic instructions, or provide both Windows and Linux examples side-by-side.
  • Discuss Linux-specific considerations (e.g., SELinux, systemd services, antivirus exclusions for Linux paths) with the same depth as Windows topics.
  • Where Windows tools or concepts (e.g., VSS, C:\ProgramData) are mentioned, provide Linux equivalents or clarify platform-specific differences.
  • Ensure that tables and lists of supported operating systems do not default to Windows at the top, but are sorted alphabetically or by usage.
