Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias by exclusively providing instructions for editing the hosts file using Windows-specific tools (Notepad, Administrator privileges, C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts), without mentioning Linux or macOS equivalents. There are no examples or guidance for users on non-Windows platforms, and Windows patterns/tools are presented as the default.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions for editing the hosts file on Linux (e.g., using sudo and editing /etc/hosts with nano or vi).
  • Include macOS-specific guidance for updating /etc/hosts.
  • Present platform-specific instructions in parallel sections or a table, rather than only Windows steps.
  • Avoid assuming Windows as the default environment; clarify that steps may differ by OS.
