Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
windows_first
powershell_heavy
windows_tools
Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias in the environment variable setup section, where Windows Command Prompt and PowerShell commands are listed before the Linux/macOS equivalent. The use of 'setx' (a Windows-specific tool) and explicit mention of PowerShell further reinforce this. Additionally, the build/run instructions use 'cmd' syntax highlighting, which may suggest a Windows-centric approach, even though the commands themselves are cross-platform.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux/macOS commands before or alongside Windows commands, rather than after.
  • Use neutral or platform-agnostic syntax highlighting (e.g., 'bash' or no language) for cross-platform commands like Maven and curl.
  • Explicitly mention that the build/run commands work identically on Linux/macOS and Windows, and provide any necessary platform-specific notes.
  • Consider grouping environment variable instructions by platform, or using tabs or collapsible sections for each OS to improve clarity and parity.
  • Avoid using Windows-specific tools (like 'setx') as the primary example; instead, provide platform-appropriate commands for each OS.
