Summary
The documentation demonstrates a notable Windows bias, particularly in the section on running the PowerShell script to grant privileges. Instructions for setting up the PSQL tool and environment variables are exclusively shown using Windows Control Panel and System Properties, with screenshots and step-by-step guidance tailored to Windows users. There are no equivalent instructions or screenshots for Linux or macOS users, nor is there guidance for running the PowerShell script or setting environment variables on those platforms. PowerShell is presented as the primary automation tool, with alternatives (pgAdmin, PSQL) mentioned only briefly and without examples.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions and screenshots for setting up the PSQL tool and environment variables on Linux and macOS (e.g., using bash/zsh, .bashrc/.zshrc, export commands).
  • Provide guidance on running the PowerShell script on Linux/macOS, including prerequisites (e.g., PowerShell Core installation) and command-line usage.
  • Include examples using native Linux/macOS tools (e.g., shell scripts, direct psql commands) as alternatives to PowerShell.
  • Present Linux/macOS instructions alongside Windows instructions, not only as a brief alternative.
  • Clarify whether the PowerShell script is cross-platform, and if not, offer equivalent scripts for bash or other common shells.
