Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a mild 'windows_first' bias. In the prerequisites, the only platform-specific setup link is for Python on Windows, with no equivalent for Linux or macOS. In the environment variable setup section, Windows command prompt and PowerShell instructions are listed before macOS/Linux, but all platforms are covered and the instructions are clearly separated. No PowerShell-heavy scripting, exclusive use of Windows tools, or missing Linux examples are present.
Recommendations:
  • In the prerequisites, provide links for setting up Python on Linux and macOS alongside the Windows link.
  • When presenting environment variable setup commands, consider listing all platforms in parallel (e.g., in a table or side-by-side tabs) or rotating the order so Linux/macOS is not always last.
  • Where possible, ensure parity in references and guidance for all major platforms to avoid the perception of Windows as the default or primary environment.
