Summary
The documentation demonstrates some Windows bias, particularly in the prerequisites and example sections. Windows tools and patterns (such as Bash on Windows 10, Windows Subsystem for Linux, Windows Command Prompt, and PowerShell's Invoke-RestMethod) are mentioned before or instead of native Linux equivalents. There is an emphasis on using Bash via WSL on Windows, and PowerShell is referenced as an alternative for REST API calls, but there are no direct Linux-specific command-line examples or instructions for native Linux environments. The documentation lacks explicit Linux command-line examples for REST API usage and does not mention Linux package managers or native Linux shell environments beyond SSH.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-first instructions and examples, such as using native Bash shells on Ubuntu or CentOS, before mentioning Windows alternatives.
  • Include explicit Linux command-line examples for REST API usage, such as using curl from a native Linux terminal.
  • Mention Linux package managers and installation steps for required tools (e.g., curl, ssh) on popular distributions.
  • Avoid referencing Windows tools (such as PowerShell's Invoke-RestMethod or Windows Command Prompt) unless providing parity with Linux equivalents.
  • Clarify that all commands work natively on Linux and provide troubleshooting tips for common Linux environments.
  • Reorder sections so that Linux-native instructions appear before Windows-specific guidance.
