Summary
The documentation demonstrates a notable Windows bias. All command-line instructions use Windows-specific tools (cmd.exe, PowerShell, Windows folder paths like %PROGRAMDATA%), and examples reference only Windows environments. There are no Linux or macOS equivalents provided for any tasks, and anti-virus exclusions reference only Windows directories. This creates friction for administrators running process servers on Linux or non-Windows platforms.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux/macOS instructions for all command-line tasks, including folder paths, command syntax, and service management (e.g., using systemctl for service restart).
  • Include Linux-specific anti-virus exclusion paths and guidance.
  • Offer PowerShell alternatives for Linux (PowerShell Core) or bash examples where applicable.
  • Clearly state platform requirements and limitations at the start of the documentation.
  • If process servers can only run on Windows, make this explicit; if Linux is supported, ensure parity in documentation.
