Summary
The documentation demonstrates a notable Windows bias, especially in the section on running the PowerShell script to grant privileges to database users. The instructions and screenshots exclusively reference Windows tools (Control Panel, System Properties, editing environment variables), and PowerShell is presented as the primary method for privilege assignment. While PSQL and pgAdmin are mentioned as alternatives, no Linux/macOS-specific instructions or examples are provided, and the environment variable setup is described only for Windows. This creates friction for Linux/macOS users, who must infer or adapt steps for their platforms.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit instructions and screenshots for setting environment variables on Linux/macOS (e.g., editing ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc).
  • Include examples of running the privilege-granting script using Bash or shell commands on Linux/macOS.
  • Offer parity in tool recommendations: show how to use PSQL and pgAdmin on Linux/macOS for privilege assignment, with step-by-step guidance.
  • Avoid presenting Windows/PowerShell as the default or only method; structure instructions to address all major platforms equally.
  • Add notes or links to platform-specific guides for common tasks (e.g., environment variable configuration, script execution).
