Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation provides both Windows and Linux instructions for Python virtual environments, but in several places, Windows-specific instructions or tabs are presented before Linux equivalents. There are dedicated pivots for Powershell and Windows, but no explicit Linux/macOS pivots. The Docker and CLI instructions are cross-platform, but Windows activation commands are shown first, and Linux instructions are sometimes secondary. There is no evidence of exclusive use of Windows-only tools, but the ordering and presence of Windows-specific pivots suggest a mild Windows-first bias.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux/macOS instructions before or alongside Windows instructions, rather than after.
  • Add explicit pivots or tabs for Linux/macOS where appropriate, not just Windows/Powershell.
  • Ensure all examples and screenshots are available for Linux/macOS environments.
  • Where possible, use cross-platform commands and avoid Windows-specific terminology unless necessary.
  • Review the ordering of instructions to avoid reinforcing Windows as the default platform.
