Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: Windows installation instructions and examples are consistently presented before Linux equivalents, with Windows-specific tools, paths, and UI screenshots dominating the walkthroughs. Linux instructions are present and reasonably detailed, but often follow after Windows steps, and some directory references (e.g., installer repository paths) use Windows conventions even when describing Linux agent deployment. UI and command-line examples default to Windows, and troubleshooting or configuration steps frequently reference Windows tools and locations first.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux and Windows instructions side-by-side or in parallel sections, rather than always listing Windows first.
  • Use OS-neutral language and directory paths when describing steps that apply to both platforms (e.g., use <InstallLocation> or platform-specific examples).
  • Include Linux screenshots and UI walkthroughs where applicable, not just Windows.
  • Ensure troubleshooting and configuration guidance includes Linux-specific details and references, not just Windows paths or tools.
  • Add explicit parity checks to ensure all Windows examples have corresponding Linux instructions, and vice versa.
  • Consider a summary table or quickstart guide that highlights both Windows and Linux installation flows equally.
