Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All command-line examples are shown as being run from Windows (with PowerShell prompts and Windows file paths). The prerequisites specifically call out Windows clients and PowerShell, and the workflow is described as being performed on a Windows system. There are no Linux or macOS examples, and no mention of Linux-specific instructions, file paths, or shell environments. Windows tooling and conventions (such as C:\ paths and PowerShell) are used exclusively.
Recommendations:
  • Provide parallel Linux/macOS instructions and examples, including shell prompts (e.g., $) and POSIX file paths (e.g., /home/user/.kube).
  • Mention installation steps for kubectl and prerequisites for Linux/macOS clients, not just Windows.
  • Show example commands and outputs as they would appear in a bash or zsh shell, not only PowerShell.
  • Clarify that the procedure is cross-platform and works on any supported OS, not just Windows.
  • Link to or summarize supported OSes and any OS-specific caveats in the prerequisites section.
  • Avoid using Windows-specific commands (e.g., New-HcsKubernetesNamespace) unless they are truly unavailable on other platforms; if so, explain alternatives or limitations.
