Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_first
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively providing instructions and tooling based on PowerShell scripts, referencing Windows PowerShell and Visual Studio Code as editors, and instructing users to run commands such as Set-ExecutionPolicy that are specific to Windows environments. There is no mention of Linux or cross-platform alternatives for script execution, nor are there examples or guidance for users on Linux or macOS. All automation and scripting guidance assumes a Windows-centric workflow.
Recommendations:
  • Provide explicit instructions for running the PowerShell script on Linux and macOS, including prerequisites (such as installing PowerShell Core and setting execution policy equivalents).
  • Mention and demonstrate the use of cross-platform editors (e.g., VS Code on Linux/macOS, nano, vim) for editing scripts.
  • Include alternative shell commands or instructions for users who prefer Bash or other shells, or clarify that the script is compatible with PowerShell Core on all platforms.
  • Add notes or examples for Linux/macOS users, such as how to download and run the script, and how to handle permissions.
  • Avoid referencing only Windows-specific tools (e.g., 'Windows PowerShell') and instead use neutral or cross-platform terminology (e.g., 'PowerShell Core').
