Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias. Windows examples and tools are presented before Linux equivalents in several sections (e.g., verbose logging commands, log file locations). Windows-specific tools and terminology (such as PowerShell, elevated command prompt, %ProgramData%, %TEMP%) are mentioned explicitly, while Linux equivalents are sometimes only referenced after or less prominently. The error and exit code tables often list Windows paths first, and PowerShell requirements are called out in error codes. However, Linux examples and troubleshooting steps are generally present and reasonably complete.
Recommendations
  • Present Windows and Linux examples side-by-side or alternate their order to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Explicitly mention Linux equivalents for all Windows-specific tools, paths, and terminology (e.g., clarify that %TEMP% on Windows corresponds to /tmp on Linux).
  • Include Linux-specific troubleshooting steps and log file locations with equal prominence.
  • Avoid using Windows-centric language (such as 'elevated command prompt') without also referencing Linux equivalents (such as 'sudo' or 'root').
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, clarify if Bash or other shells are supported and provide examples.
  • Ensure that error codes and remediation steps are equally detailed for both platforms.
