Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_first
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias by using PowerShell syntax (>) in npm install commands and presenting these commands in a way that is most familiar to Windows users. There are no explicit Linux shell (bash) examples, and the use of the PowerShell prompt may confuse Linux/macOS users. However, the overall content is largely cross-platform, as it focuses on JavaScript, HTML, and npm, which are platform-agnostic.
Recommendations:
  • Replace PowerShell-specific prompts (>) in npm install commands with a generic shell prompt ($) or no prompt at all to avoid implying a Windows-only environment.
  • Add explicit Linux/macOS shell examples where command-line instructions are given, or use a neutral format (e.g., 'npm install azure-maps-indoor') without any prompt.
  • Include a note clarifying that all npm and JavaScript commands work on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that the instructions are platform-independent.
  • If referencing tools or workflows that differ between platforms (such as file paths or environment variables), provide both Windows and Linux/macOS examples.
