Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias by presenting Windows installation details before Linux, using Windows-specific tools (MSI, Download Center), and referencing Windows paths and services extensively. Windows terminology (e.g., 'NT SERVICE', 'Group Policy', '%ProgramFiles%') is used without Linux equivalents or explanations. Linux instructions are present but less detailed, and troubleshooting/logging examples are Windows-centric. No PowerShell commands are shown, but the overall pattern prioritizes Windows concepts and tools.
Recommendations
- Present Windows and Linux installation instructions in parallel or alternate order to avoid Windows-first impression.
- Provide Linux-specific troubleshooting steps and examples, including common Linux commands for agent management (e.g., systemctl, journalctl).
- Reference Linux package managers and repositories with equal prominence to Windows Installer/MSI.
- Include Linux equivalents for Windows concepts (e.g., explain Linux service accounts, systemd units, and security groups).
- Ensure all directory and environment variable examples are shown for both platforms, not just Windows.
- Add more detail to Linux agent management, including uninstall steps, permissions, and integration with Linux security policies.
