Summary
The documentation demonstrates some Windows bias, particularly in the 'Simulate a failure with Fiddler' section, where only Fiddler (a Windows-only tool) is described for simulating failures via HTTP interception. Additionally, in the static route section, Windows commands and terminology are often mentioned before Linux equivalents, and the instructions for opening an elevated command prompt reference Windows first.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent instructions for HTTP interception on Linux and macOS, such as using mitmproxy or similar cross-platform tools, alongside Fiddler.
  • When listing commands or instructions, alternate the order or present Linux and Windows instructions in parallel to avoid always prioritizing Windows.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform alternatives to Fiddler and provide example scripts or steps for those tools.
  • Clarify that Fiddler is a Windows-only tool and suggest alternatives for users on other operating systems.
  • Ensure that terminology (e.g., 'elevated command prompt') is inclusive of all platforms, such as 'open a terminal as administrator/root on your OS'.
