Summary
The documentation demonstrates some Windows bias, notably by mentioning Windows and Git Bash before Linux in several places, and by providing detailed instructions for Windows users (such as installing Git and using Git Bash) while only briefly referencing Linux/WSL users. The prerequisites and command instructions are often Windows-centric, and there is no explicit example for native Linux terminals or alternative Linux tools. The use of Git Bash as the recommended shell for Windows users may be confusing for Linux users, as it is not a standard Linux tool. There are no PowerShell-specific examples, but the overall flow assumes familiarity with Windows environments and tools.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit examples and instructions for native Linux environments, including standard Bash shells.
  • List Linux instructions before or alongside Windows instructions to avoid 'windows_first' bias.
  • Clarify that all commands work in standard Linux Bash, not just Git Bash or WSL.
  • Offer installation guidance for required tools (curl, openssl, Python) on Linux distributions.
  • Avoid recommending Windows-specific tools (e.g., Git Bash) as the default for cross-platform scenarios; instead, suggest platform-appropriate shells.
  • Add troubleshooting notes for common Linux-specific issues (e.g., permissions, package installation).
