Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias by listing Windows as the first platform in prerequisites and examples, providing more Windows-specific sample types (CMD, Batch, PowerShell, F#) than Linux, and including Windows-only scripting languages and tools. Linux examples are limited to cross-platform languages and Bash, with no Linux equivalents for CMD, Batch, PowerShell, or F#. The structure and ordering prioritize Windows users and tools, potentially making Linux users feel secondary.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux and Windows platforms with equal prominence in prerequisites and sample tables.
  • Add Linux equivalents for Windows-specific samples where possible (e.g., provide shell scripts for tasks shown in CMD/Batch/PowerShell).
  • Include Linux-specific scripting languages or tools (e.g., Perl, Ruby, or shell variants) to match the breadth of Windows examples.
  • Ensure that instructions and examples for both platforms are parallel in detail and order.
  • Consider starting with a cross-platform introduction before splitting into OS-specific tabs.
