Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias by listing Windows operating systems and tools before Linux equivalents, providing detailed requirements for Windows (including PowerShell, .NET, BitLocker) while Linux requirements are less detailed and lack usage examples. Windows-specific tools and patterns are mentioned explicitly, but there are no command-line or usage examples for Linux tools, and Linux requirements are presented more generically.
Recommendations:
- Present Linux and Windows operating systems in parallel or alternate order in tables and lists to avoid Windows-first ordering.
- Provide equivalent detail for Linux requirements, including explicit version numbers and required packages.
- Include example commands for both Windows (e.g., PowerShell) and Linux (e.g., bash/terminal) for common tasks such as unlocking disks, copying data, and validating data.
- List Linux tools (e.g., dislocker, ntfs-3g, sedutil-cli) with brief descriptions and installation instructions, similar to how Windows tools are listed.
- Avoid assuming Windows as the default environment; clarify when features or steps are platform-specific.
- Ensure parity in troubleshooting and operational guidance for both platforms.
