Summary
The documentation generally uses cross-platform commands and avoids Windows-specific tooling in its main flow. However, there is a subtle Windows bias: Visual Studio Code is recommended as the editor (which, while cross-platform, is often associated with Windows), and in the environment variable section, Windows command shells (PowerShell and CMD) are listed after bash/csh, but are present. There are no examples that are exclusively Windows or PowerShell, and Linux/macOS commands are given equal or greater prominence. No Linux-specific tools or editors are recommended, and the editor recommendation is Windows-centric.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention Linux/macOS editors (e.g., Vim, Emacs, GNOME Text Editor) alongside Visual Studio Code.
  • Clarify that Visual Studio Code is cross-platform and provide links to its Linux/macOS installation guides.
  • In environment variable examples, consider listing bash/csh/zsh first, but also note that PowerShell is available on Linux/macOS.
  • Add a note that all commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and highlight any platform-specific caveats if present.
  • Where screenshots or instructions reference Windows UI elements, provide Linux/macOS equivalents.
