Summary
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias by consistently mentioning Windows (and Git Bash) before Linux/WSL in instructions, and by focusing on Windows-specific tooling (Git Bash, winpty) for running commands on Windows. While Linux/WSL is supported and examples are provided, Windows environments and workarounds are prioritized or described first, and the documentation assumes the use of Git Bash rather than native Windows terminals or PowerShell.
Recommendations
- Alternate the order of platform instructions so that Linux/WSL is sometimes presented first, or present both platforms equally (e.g., side-by-side tabs).
- Explicitly mention native Windows terminal or PowerShell as alternatives to Git Bash, or provide PowerShell-native command examples where appropriate.
- Clarify that 'winpty' is only required for Git Bash, and suggest native alternatives for users running in other Windows shells.
- Ensure that all prerequisite and command instructions are equally detailed for both Linux and Windows, and avoid assuming that Windows users will always use Git Bash.
- Consider adding a table or section summarizing all supported environments and the recommended shell/tools for each, to avoid implicit prioritization.
