Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias primarily in the 'ID' attribute section, where PowerShell's New-GUID cmdlet is mentioned as the example tool for generating GUIDs, with no mention of Linux or cross-platform alternatives. The only explicit tool recommendation is Windows/PowerShell-centric, and it is presented first and exclusively. No Linux or macOS command-line equivalents (such as uuidgen) are referenced. The rest of the documentation is platform-neutral, but this section stands out as Windows-focused.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux and macOS command-line alternatives for GUID generation, such as 'uuidgen' or 'cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/uuid'.
  • Present cross-platform or web-based GUID generators before or alongside PowerShell examples.
  • Explicitly state that any tool or method capable of generating a GUID is acceptable, and provide links or examples for multiple platforms.
  • Review other sections for similar tool recommendations and ensure parity by providing both Windows and Linux/macOS examples where relevant.
