Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by listing Windows and PowerShell commands before Linux/macOS equivalents, providing more detailed proxy bypass instructions for Windows (with no Linux/macOS equivalents), and referencing Windows-specific behaviors (e.g., automatic proxy detection, Windows Event Logger, and Syslog). Some environment variable descriptions are tailored to Windows, and Linux-specific guidance is minimal or absent.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux/macOS and Windows command examples in parallel, or alternate the order to avoid always listing Windows first.
  • Provide equally detailed instructions for Linux/macOS users, especially for proxy bypass scenarios (e.g., how to explicitly disable proxy on Linux/macOS).
  • Clarify platform-specific behaviors for all OSes, not just Windows (e.g., explain logging destinations on Linux/macOS as well as Windows).
  • Avoid referencing Windows-specific tools or behaviors without mentioning Linux/macOS equivalents (e.g., mention Syslog and Event Logger together, or explain alternatives).
  • Where environment variable effects differ by OS, clearly state the behavior for each supported platform.
