Summary
The documentation exhibits some Windows bias, particularly in the Python quickstart where Windows-specific commands (such as venv activation) are shown first and Linux commands are secondary. In the PowerShell pivot, only PowerShell is referenced, with no mention of Linux shells or equivalents. There are no explicit Linux shell or tool examples for C# or Java, and the PowerShell pivot lacks parity for Linux users. However, most core commands (such as Docker and directory navigation) are cross-platform, and the Python section does provide both Windows and Linux activation commands.
Recommendations
  • For every PowerShell or Windows-specific example, provide a Linux (bash/sh) equivalent, especially in the PowerShell pivot.
  • In the Python section, consider presenting Linux and Windows commands side-by-side or in a tabbed format, rather than listing Windows first.
  • For C# and Java pivots, clarify that the commands are cross-platform and, where relevant (e.g., .NET CLI, Gradle), mention any OS-specific prerequisites or differences.
  • Add explicit notes or tabs for Linux/macOS users in all language pivots, not just Python.
  • If a PowerShell pivot is included, consider adding a bash/zsh shell pivot or at least a section for Linux/macOS users.
  • Review screenshots and file paths to ensure they are not Windows-centric (e.g., avoid backslashes in paths unless necessary).
