Bias Analysis
Bias Types:
⚠️
windows_first
⚠️
missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias in the certificate generation section, where instructions and context are tailored to Windows users (e.g., opening a command prompt in %USERPROFILE%), and there are no equivalent Linux or macOS instructions or examples. The rest of the guide is platform-neutral, especially when using the cross-platform MQTTX app, but the initial setup lacks Linux parity.
Recommendations:
- Provide explicit Linux and macOS instructions for installing and using the step CLI, including example terminal commands for common distributions (e.g., apt, yum, brew).
- Replace or supplement the '%USERPROFILE%' and 'command prompt' references with platform-agnostic or platform-specific alternatives (e.g., '~' for Linux/macOS, and mention Terminal for non-Windows users).
- Add notes or callouts clarifying any platform-specific differences in file paths or environment variables.
- Wherever commands are shown, provide both Windows (PowerShell/cmd) and Linux/macOS (bash) equivalents, especially for certificate generation and file path references.
