Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
windows_first
Summary
The documentation presents Windows-specific examples (e.g., directory paths like 'D:\home\LogFiles') before Linux equivalents, especially in the 'Run the sample' section. While both Windows and Linux examples are eventually provided, Windows is consistently mentioned first, which may subtly prioritize Windows users. There are no exclusive references to Windows-only tools, PowerShell, or missing Linux examples, and the code samples themselves are cross-platform.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux and Windows examples side-by-side or alternate which is shown first to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Explicitly state that the code and instructions are cross-platform where applicable.
  • Where platform-specific details are required (such as file paths), provide both Windows and Linux examples together in all relevant sections.
  • Consider using neutral or environment-agnostic examples (e.g., '/path/to/files') where possible, or clarify that the sample paths are just for illustration.
