Summary
The documentation exhibits Windows bias in several areas. Windows-specific tools (winget) are used for installing kubectl, and file path examples consistently use Windows-style paths (e.g., C:\path\to\archive.zip) in both Bash and PowerShell tabs. The extraction command for ZIP files uses Expand-Archive, which is a Windows PowerShell cmdlet, even in the Bash tab, with no Linux-native alternatives (e.g., unzip) provided. There are no Linux-specific installation instructions or examples for common tasks such as extracting files or installing kubectl, and the documentation assumes a Windows environment by default.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific examples for installing kubectl (e.g., using apt, yum, or curl).
  • Include Linux-native commands for extracting ZIP files (e.g., unzip, tar) in the Bash tab.
  • Use generic or platform-neutral file path examples (e.g., /home/user/archive.zip) in Bash sections.
  • Clearly indicate when commands or instructions are platform-specific, and offer alternatives for both Windows and Linux.
  • Add a dedicated section or tab for Linux/macOS users where appropriate, especially for setup and prerequisite steps.
