Summary
The documentation consistently lists Windows download links before Linux, references Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, MSI installer, Windows Event Logs, WMI, Win32 API), and highlights Windows features and fixes in detail. PowerShell upgrades and telemetry are frequently mentioned, and Windows installer improvements are called out. While Linux features and fixes are present, Windows patterns and terminology are more prominent and often appear first. There are no critical sections that are Windows-only, but the overall framing and example order favor Windows.
Recommendations
- Alternate the order of Windows and Linux download links or present them together to avoid Windows-first perception.
- Ensure Linux-specific tools (e.g., systemd, journalctl, shell commands) are mentioned with equal prominence and detail as Windows tools.
- Highlight Linux features and fixes in summary sections, not just as bracketed notes.
- Include Linux/macOS equivalents for Windows-specific terminology (e.g., mention .deb/.rpm installers alongside MSI, systemd/journalctl alongside Event Logs).
- Balance PowerShell mentions with Bash/shell scripting references for Linux users.
- Add explicit parity notes when a feature or fix applies to both platforms, or clarify when it is platform-specific.
