Summary
The documentation exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Windows prerequisites and instructions are listed first, with explicit references to Windows-specific tools (e.g., Microsoft C++ Build Tools, WSL). Some installation and activation commands are Windows-centric or provide more detail for Windows users. Linux and macOS instructions are present but less detailed, and some examples (such as activating virtual environments) are more explicit for Windows. There is also a suggestion to use WSL for Windows users, which may confuse the distinction between native Linux and Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux/macOS instructions before or alongside Windows instructions, rather than always listing Windows first.
  • Provide equally detailed installation steps for Linux and macOS (e.g., mention required build tools for Linux, not just for macOS).
  • Avoid suggesting WSL as a Linux environment for Windows users unless necessary, and clarify when native Linux instructions apply.
  • For virtual environment activation, provide the exact command for all platforms (e.g., 'source sdutilenv/bin/activate' for Linux/macOS, 'sdutilenv/Scripts/activate' for Windows) in a clear, parallel format.
  • Ensure all code examples use platform-agnostic syntax where possible, or provide both Windows and Linux/macOS variants.
  • Include troubleshooting and FAQ sections relevant to Linux/macOS users, not just Windows.
