Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias by emphasizing Visual Studio (a Windows-only tool) in both the main and commented-out tables, and by providing a feature (JavaScript UDF and UDA) that is 'Windows only' in Visual Studio Code without explanation or Linux alternatives. There are no Linux-specific examples or guidance, and Windows tools are mentioned explicitly and sometimes exclusively.
Recommendations:
  • Provide explicit Linux and Mac instructions or notes where features are Windows-only (e.g., for JavaScript UDF/UDA), and suggest workarounds or alternatives for non-Windows users.
  • Balance tool coverage by including more information about cross-platform tools (such as Visual Studio Code) and de-emphasizing Windows-only tools unless necessary.
  • Add Linux/macOS-specific examples or troubleshooting tips where relevant, especially for features that are not supported on those platforms.
  • Clarify in the documentation why certain features are Windows-only and, if possible, provide a roadmap or links to feature requests for Linux/macOS support.
  • Consider reordering or rephrasing content so that cross-platform tools and features are mentioned before or alongside Windows-only tools, to avoid the perception of Windows as the default or preferred platform.
