Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias in its examples and tooling. PowerShell is the only HTTP client shown for testing the Node.js REST API, and Microsoft PowerShell is referenced multiple times as the suggested tool. No Linux/macOS alternatives (such as curl, httpie, or bash) are provided, and the PowerShell example appears before any mention of other platforms. This creates friction for Linux/macOS users who may not have PowerShell installed or prefer native tools.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent Linux/macOS examples using curl or httpie for making HTTP requests.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform alternatives to PowerShell for testing the REST API.
  • Present examples for both Windows and Linux/macOS side-by-side, or alternate which platform is shown first.
  • Clarify that PowerShell is available cross-platform, but also provide native command-line examples for each OS.
