Summary:
The documentation exhibits a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows-specific instructions and tools, such as PowerShell and WSL, and by providing more detailed, step-by-step guidance for Windows users. Linux and macOS instructions are less detailed and often grouped together, with some steps (like directory navigation) omitted. There is also a focus on Docker Desktop, which is more common on Windows, and explicit notes about Windows path conventions, while Linux equivalents are not discussed.
Recommendations:
- Provide equally detailed, step-by-step instructions for Linux and macOS users, including terminal commands for directory navigation and script execution.
- List Linux and macOS instructions before or alongside Windows instructions, rather than after.
- Include Linux-native Docker installation links and prerequisites, not just Docker Desktop (which is Windows/macOS-centric).
- Offer explicit examples of file path conventions for Linux/macOS in addition to Windows.
- Avoid requiring WSL for Windows users unless absolutely necessary, and clarify when native Linux/macOS environments are supported.
- Ensure that all scripts and commands are shown in both PowerShell (Windows) and Bash (Linux/macOS) formats where applicable.

> When you're specifying file paths in Windows, use double backslashes (`\\`) instead of single backslashes (`\`) to avoid confusion with escape characters.
