Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias in several ways. In the prerequisites, it links only to Windows-specific Python setup documentation. When describing how to activate the Python virtual environment, it provides only the Windows command ('.\venv\Scripts\Activate') and omits the Linux/macOS equivalent ('source venv/bin/activate'). In the section on setting environment variables, Windows Command Prompt and PowerShell instructions are given first and in more detail, while the Linux/macOS example is listed last and lacks explanation. There are no Linux-specific troubleshooting tips or references to Linux tools.
Recommendations
  • Provide both Windows and Linux/macOS commands for activating Python virtual environments (e.g., 'source venv/bin/activate' for Linux/macOS).
  • Include links to Python installation/setup documentation for Linux and macOS in the prerequisites.
  • When listing environment variable commands, present Linux/macOS instructions first or alongside Windows instructions, and explain any differences.
  • Add troubleshooting notes or tips for common Linux/macOS issues (e.g., permissions, package installation).
  • Ensure all CLI instructions are cross-platform or clearly marked for each OS.
