Summary
The documentation is heavily biased toward Windows/PowerShell environments. All onboarding scripts and usage instructions are provided exclusively as PowerShell (.ps1) scripts, with all example commands shown in PowerShell syntax. Prerequisites reference Windows-specific tools (winget), and there are no instructions or examples for running the onboarding process on Linux or macOS (e.g., via Bash, shell scripts, or cross-platform alternatives). This creates friction for non-Windows users and may block onboarding for those unable to run PowerShell scripts.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent onboarding scripts in Bash or other POSIX-compliant shells, or document how to run the PowerShell scripts on Linux/macOS (e.g., using PowerShell Core).
  • Include Linux/macOS-specific installation instructions for prerequisites (e.g., using apt, yum, or Homebrew instead of winget).
  • Add example commands for Linux/macOS terminals, or clarify if the scripts are compatible with PowerShell Core on non-Windows platforms.
  • Explicitly state platform requirements and, if Windows is required, provide a rationale or workaround for Linux/macOS users.
