Summary
The documentation demonstrates mild Windows bias, primarily through the use of Windows-specific tools, terminology, and ordering. PowerShell is included as a first-class language option, and some instructions and troubleshooting steps reference Windows-specific behaviors (e.g., default terminal shell issues with WSL Bash). In cross-platform build instructions for Go and Rust, Windows steps are presented after macOS/Linux, but Windows-specific details (such as changing 'handler.exe' to 'handler') are called out. The PowerShell prerequisites link only to Windows installation instructions, and the troubleshooting section includes a Windows-specific note about terminal shells.
Recommendations
  • Ensure all language and tool prerequisites include explicit instructions for Linux and macOS, not just Windows (e.g., PowerShell installation links for Linux/macOS).
  • When referencing platform-specific issues (e.g., default terminal shell), provide equivalent troubleshooting for Linux/macOS users.
  • In build instructions, present all platforms equally and clarify any platform-specific steps, rather than focusing on Windows-specific file extensions or behaviors.
  • Include examples and notes for Linux/macOS users wherever Windows-specific tools or patterns are mentioned.
  • Review and update links to ensure parity in guidance for all supported platforms, especially for language runtimes and extensions.
