Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by consistently listing Windows tools and patterns before their Linux equivalents, such as referencing 'cmd.exe' before '/bin/sh' and using Windows-style environment variable syntax and examples first. Windows-specific details (e.g., drive letters, app package naming conventions) are described in greater depth, while Linux examples are less prominent or missing in some cases. There is a lack of parity in example coverage and explanation for Linux users.
Recommendations
- Alternate the order of Windows and Linux examples throughout the documentation, or present them side-by-side.
- Provide equal detail for Linux-specific environment variable naming conventions and usage patterns.
- Include explicit Linux command-line examples wherever Windows examples are given (e.g., show both 'cmd /c set' and 'printenv' for variable inspection).
- Clarify Linux-specific behaviors for file paths, mounts, and application package installation.
- Add a dedicated section summarizing Linux usage patterns and caveats, similar to any Windows-focused sections.
- Ensure all environment variable examples and directory postfix tables include both Windows and Linux formats.
