Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows and PowerShell are mentioned before Linux alternatives in prerequisites and examples. Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, Windows Subsystem for Linux) are highlighted, and some examples reference Windows paths and installation guides. While Bash examples are present, there is a tendency to frame Linux usage in the context of Windows (e.g., Bash on Ubuntu on Windows 10), and some PowerShell examples use jq in a Windows path. There is limited guidance for native Linux environments, and the documentation assumes Windows as the primary platform for many tasks.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux-native usage and examples before or alongside Windows/PowerShell equivalents, especially in prerequisites and setup sections.
  • Remove or de-emphasize references to 'Bash on Ubuntu on Windows 10' and instead provide instructions for native Linux shells.
  • Provide explicit instructions for installing and using jq and other tools on Linux, not just Windows.
  • Avoid Windows-specific paths (e.g., C:\HD\jq\jq-win64) in examples; provide Linux equivalents.
  • Clarify that all examples work natively on Linux, and provide troubleshooting tips for common Linux environments.
  • Mention Linux command-line tools and patterns where relevant, not just PowerShell or Windows alternatives.
  • Ensure parity in documentation for both platforms, including links to Linux-specific resources.
