Summary
The documentation generally presents cross-platform instructions, but there is a subtle Windows bias. Visual Studio Code is recommended as the text editor, which is a Microsoft product, and CMD/PowerShell environment variable commands are included alongside bash/csh. The Windows-specific instructions (CMD/PowerShell) appear after Linux/macOS examples, but their inclusion without explicit Linux parity explanations may reinforce a Windows-centric perspective. There are no missing Linux examples, and the main workflow uses bash commands, which are cross-platform.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention that Visual Studio Code is available on Linux/macOS and suggest other popular editors (e.g., Sublime Text, Vim, Atom) to avoid implying a Windows-only workflow.
  • Clarify that all CLI commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide guidance for users of WSL or native Linux terminals.
  • Consider listing Linux/macOS instructions first or in parallel with Windows instructions, rather than always including Windows tools.
  • Add a short note explaining how to open a terminal on each platform (e.g., Terminal on macOS/Linux, Command Prompt/PowerShell on Windows).
  • Ensure screenshots and examples do not implicitly favor Windows environments.
