Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types

Summary
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias by presenting Windows Command Prompt and PowerShell instructions before macOS and Linux equivalents when setting environment variables. The Windows command is described as the default, with extra validation steps, and PowerShell is given a dedicated section. While Linux and macOS commands are present, they appear after the Windows instructions, and there is no explicit parity in validation or troubleshooting steps for non-Windows platforms.
Recommendations
  • Present all OS instructions in parallel tabbed sections (Windows CMD, PowerShell, macOS, Linux) without ordering Windows first by default.
  • Ensure validation and troubleshooting steps are equally detailed for all platforms, not just Windows.
  • Avoid language that implies Windows is the default or primary development environment.
  • Where possible, provide cross-platform commands or highlight differences only where necessary.
  • Consider including a table summarizing environment variable commands for all platforms at once for quick reference.
