Summary
The documentation provides command-line instructions for Linux/macOS and Windows users, including PowerShell and Cmd tabs where relevant. However, Windows-specific tools and patterns (PowerShell, Cmd) are consistently presented alongside bash, sometimes with Windows variants shown first. The use of Windows-specific command syntax (e.g., 'py' instead of 'python3', '.venv\scripts\activate') and explicit PowerShell/Cmd examples demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Linux/macOS instructions are present and generally complete, but Windows tooling and patterns are given equal or slightly more prominence.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux/macOS examples first where possible, especially in mixed tabs.
  • Clarify that 'py' may not be available on all Linux/macOS systems; recommend 'python3' as the default.
  • Ensure that bash instructions are always shown before Windows-specific shells unless usage data suggests otherwise.
  • Add explicit notes when Windows-only tools or patterns are used, and provide Linux/macOS equivalents or alternatives.
  • Consider grouping all platform instructions together for parity, rather than splitting by shell type.
  • Audit for any subtle assumptions (e.g., file paths, environment activation) that may differ between platforms and clarify for Linux/macOS users.
