Summary
The documentation page generally maintains cross-platform parity, but there are subtle signs of Windows bias. Windows is mentioned as an option alongside Ubuntu, but is listed after Ubuntu in the OS selection. However, Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, RDP) are referenced before or alongside Linux equivalents, and instructions for connecting to VMs mention PowerShell and Windows-specific scenarios (Win32 OpenSSH, WSL) prominently. The connection instructions reference PowerShell for Windows users, and there is a separate callout for connecting to Windows VMs and installing the OE SDK on Windows, while Linux instructions are more integrated. There is no explicit Linux bias, but Windows tooling and patterns are given significant attention.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific examples and tools first when describing cross-platform steps, such as connecting to VMs.
  • Include parity in SDK installation instructions, e.g., link to both Linux and Windows OE SDK install guides in the same section.
  • When mentioning SSH clients, list Linux and macOS tools before Windows tools, and clarify that PowerShell is available on all platforms.
  • Avoid referencing Windows-specific scenarios (e.g., Win32 OpenSSH, WSL) before Linux equivalents unless contextually necessary.
  • Ensure that any Windows-specific instructions are matched with Linux equivalents in the same location for easy comparison.
