Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ cmd_examples
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation provides both Bash (Linux/macOS) and Cmd (Windows) examples for all command-line instructions, ensuring cross-platform coverage. However, in each case, the Windows (Cmd) examples are presented immediately after the Bash examples, and there is no mention of PowerShell, WSL, or other Windows-specific tools. The documentation does not provide Linux-specific troubleshooting, nor does it mention platform-specific caveats or alternatives. There are no Linux-only examples, and the structure always presents Bash first, then Cmd, which could be interpreted as a mild 'windows_first' bias in the sense that Windows is always given equal or more prominence, but not exclusively so.
Recommendations:
  • Consider including PowerShell examples for Windows users, as PowerShell is more common than Cmd for scripting on modern Windows systems.
  • Add a brief note about cross-platform compatibility, explicitly stating that all commands are supported on Linux, macOS, and Windows (with Bash or Cmd).
  • If there are any platform-specific caveats (such as line endings, file permissions, or environment variable persistence), mention them explicitly.
  • Consider grouping Bash and Cmd examples in tabs labeled 'Linux/macOS' and 'Windows', or clarify that Bash commands work in WSL and Git Bash on Windows.
  • Provide troubleshooting tips for both Linux/macOS and Windows environments, especially for common issues like environment variable persistence or file system differences.
