Summary
The documentation exhibits Windows bias primarily in its references to time zone names and date/time formatting. Time zone parameters for functions such as convertFromUtc, convertTimeZone, and convertToUtc explicitly direct users to 'Microsoft Windows Default Time Zones' and require Windows-style time zone names. Date/time format strings are referenced using .NET documentation, which is more familiar to Windows users. No mention is made of Linux/Unix time zone naming conventions (e.g., IANA/Olson database), nor are Linux equivalents or cross-platform considerations discussed. There are no PowerShell-heavy examples, but the documentation assumes Windows-centric patterns and tools for key functionality.
Recommendations
- Add information about IANA/Olson time zone names and clarify whether they are supported or not. If only Windows time zones are supported, explicitly state this limitation and provide guidance for Linux users.
- Include cross-platform notes for date/time formatting, explaining how .NET format strings map to other environments and what Linux users should expect.
- Where external references are made (e.g., time zone lists), provide links or explanations for both Windows and Linux/Unix conventions, or clarify the scope of support.
- Add a note about the lack of support for Linux-style time zones if applicable, and suggest workarounds for users on non-Windows platforms.
- Consider including examples or documentation for Linux/Unix users, especially where platform differences may affect workflow behavior.
