Summary
The documentation provides both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux (bash/curl) examples for all major usage scenarios, with clear tab separation. However, Windows/PowerShell examples are consistently presented first in each sample, and some troubleshooting and advanced routing instructions are more verbose for Windows (including PowerShell CLI examples even in Linux troubleshooting). Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, route print, ipconfig) are referenced before their Linux equivalents, but Linux coverage is strong and parity is maintained throughout.
Recommendations
- Alternate the order of Windows and Linux examples, or present Linux first in some sections to avoid implicit prioritization.
- Ensure troubleshooting steps for Linux are as detailed as those for Windows, and avoid including PowerShell CLI examples in Linux troubleshooting unless a direct Linux CLI equivalent is also provided.
- Where possible, reference Linux tools (e.g., netstat, ip, ifconfig) alongside Windows tools in general guidance sections.
- Consider adding a short note at the start stating that both Linux and Windows are equally supported, and that example order does not imply priority.
