Summary
The documentation exhibits Windows bias primarily in the file extraction step, where only Windows-specific tools (Expand-Archive, winget) are referenced and no Linux/macOS alternatives (such as unzip, tar, or Homebrew) are provided. The examples for extracting ZIP files and installing kubectl use Windows-centric commands and tools, which may not work on Linux/macOS. Additionally, the Bash tab for extracting ZIP files incorrectly uses Expand-Archive (a PowerShell/Windows command), further confusing Linux/macOS users. The ordering of examples sometimes places Windows tools first or exclusively.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux/macOS-specific instructions for extracting ZIP files (e.g., 'unzip archive.zip -d /path/to/folder').
  • Provide alternative installation methods for kubectl for Linux/macOS (e.g., curl, apt, yum, Homebrew).
  • Ensure Bash examples use cross-platform commands and avoid Windows-only tools.
  • Clearly separate Windows/PowerShell and Linux/macOS instructions, and provide parity in all steps.
  • Review and correct any Bash tabs that use Windows-only commands.
