Bias Analysis
Bias Types:
⚠️
windows_first
⚠️
missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a subtle Windows bias by providing only Windows-style commands for activating the Python virtual environment ('.\Scripts\activate') and omitting the equivalent Linux/macOS command ('source ./bin/activate'). No explicit Linux or macOS instructions or examples are given for environment setup, which may confuse or slow down non-Windows users.
Recommendations:
- Include both Windows and Linux/macOS commands for activating the Python virtual environment. For example, show both '.\Scripts\activate' (Windows) and 'source ./bin/activate' (Linux/macOS).
- Explicitly mention that the instructions apply to all platforms, and provide notes or tabs for platform-specific steps when necessary.
- Review other steps (such as file path conventions) to ensure they are platform-neutral or provide alternatives for non-Windows users.
- Consider adding a short section or note confirming cross-platform compatibility and linking to Python documentation on virtual environments for different operating systems.
