Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
windows_first

Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in the 'Run the application' section, where Windows command prompt and PowerShell instructions are presented before Linux/macOS equivalents. Windows-specific tools (setx, PowerShell) are mentioned explicitly, while Linux/macOS instructions are grouped together and provided after the Windows examples. The Node.js installation guidance also references Windows and WSL before other platforms.
Recommendations
  • Present platform instructions in parallel tabs or in a consistent order (e.g., alphabetical: Linux/macOS, PowerShell, Windows CMD) to avoid prioritizing Windows.
  • Explicitly mention Linux and macOS tools and patterns where relevant, and ensure parity in detail and clarity.
  • In prerequisite sections, provide installation instructions for Node.js on Linux/macOS with equal prominence as Windows.
  • Consider using generic cross-platform instructions first, or highlight that all platforms are equally supported.
  • Review for any other subtle prioritization of Windows terminology or tooling, and balance with Linux/macOS equivalents.
