Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
windows_first
powershell_heavy
Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias in its instructions for setting environment variables, listing Windows Command Prompt and PowerShell methods before Linux/macOS equivalents. It also provides explicit PowerShell instructions, reinforcing Windows-centric usage patterns. The only mention of Linux is in the context of installing Node.js, and Linux/macOS commands are listed last in each section. No Linux-specific tools or troubleshooting are discussed.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux/macOS and Windows instructions in parallel or randomize their order to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Provide Linux/macOS examples first in some sections, or use tabs with equal prominence for each OS.
  • Include troubleshooting tips or notes for Linux/macOS users, such as differences in environment variable persistence.
  • Reference Linux-native tools and patterns (e.g., .bashrc, .profile) for environment variable persistence.
  • Clarify that all platforms are equally supported and tested, and provide links to platform-specific guidance where relevant.
