Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows examples, paths, and UI screenshots are consistently presented first and in greater detail. Windows-centric tools, folder structures (e.g., C:\Program Files), and installation instructions dominate, with Linux equivalents often appearing after or in less detail. UI-based installation instructions and screenshots are almost exclusively Windows-focused. Some sections, such as antivirus exclusions and installer repository paths, use Windows paths and terminology without Linux parity. While Linux instructions are present and reasonably complete, the overall structure and emphasis favor Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Alternate the order of Windows and Linux instructions/examples to avoid always presenting Windows first.
  • Provide Linux UI screenshots where applicable, or clarify if UI is Windows-only.
  • Include Linux-specific notes for antivirus exclusions and repository paths (e.g., /usr/local/ASR).
  • Ensure all command-line examples for Windows have direct Linux equivalents and vice versa.
  • Use neutral language and folder naming in generic instructions (e.g., 'local folder' instead of 'C:\Program Files').
  • Add parity in troubleshooting and prerequisite sections, ensuring Linux issues and solutions are equally covered.
  • Where Windows-specific tools or patterns (e.g., VSS) are mentioned, clarify Linux alternatives or note if not applicable.
