Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by providing a PowerShell-based PSPING example for connectivity testing without offering a Linux equivalent. The use of PSPING (a Windows-specific tool) and PowerShell syntax, without mentioning or prioritizing Linux alternatives, may disadvantage Linux users. Additionally, the order and prominence of Windows tools and patterns suggest a Windows-first approach.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Linux connectivity testing examples, such as using 'nc' (netcat), 'telnet', or 'nmap' for port checks.
- When introducing a tool like PSPING, explicitly mention its platform specificity and immediately offer a Linux alternative.
- Balance the order of examples so that Linux and Windows instructions are presented together or alternate which comes first.
- Where possible, use cross-platform tools (e.g., redis-cli, curl) in examples.
- Add a table or section summarizing connectivity troubleshooting commands for both Windows and Linux.
