Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: Windows and PowerShell are mentioned first or exclusively in prerequisites, examples, and tool recommendations. Bash is described as being used 'on Windows 10' via WSL, and PowerShell is repeatedly presented as an alternative to Bash, sometimes with more detail. Windows-specific installation guides and tools (e.g., Windows Subsystem for Linux, PowerShell, Windows paths for jq) are referenced before or instead of native Linux equivalents. There is little direct guidance for native Linux users, and the workflow assumes a Windows-centric environment.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions and examples for native Linux environments, not just Bash on Windows.
  • Present Linux-native prerequisites (e.g., installing jq, using Bash on Ubuntu) before or alongside Windows/WSL/PowerShell instructions.
  • Avoid referencing Windows-specific installation guides as the primary method for accessing Bash; link to general Bash or Linux shell documentation.
  • Ensure parity in detail and troubleshooting for both Linux and Windows users.
  • Where PowerShell is used, provide equivalent Linux shell scripting examples (e.g., using curl, jq, and bash loops) and clarify any differences.
  • Remove or de-emphasize Windows-specific paths and tools unless strictly necessary, and always provide Linux alternatives.
