Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
While the documentation is titled and themed around Linux, there are several instances where Windows-specific tools and patterns are presented first or exclusively. For example, in the 'Set up your initial environment' and 'Run the sample' sections, PowerShell and Cmd examples are given alongside or before Bash, and in some cases, Bash/Linux-specific guidance is minimal or missing. The documentation sometimes assumes familiarity with Windows command-line tools (e.g., 'py -3'), and does not always provide parity for Linux users, especially in the Django section where Bash, PowerShell, and Cmd are all shown, but the Bash example is not always presented first or emphasized.
Recommendations:
  • Present Bash/Linux examples first in all code blocks and tabs, especially since the quickstart is Linux-focused.
  • Ensure all command-line instructions use Linux-native commands and patterns as the default, with Windows variants as secondary.
  • Where 'py -3' is used (a Windows launcher), clarify or provide the equivalent Linux command (usually 'python3') and explain any differences.
  • Review all sections for any missing Linux-specific instructions or troubleshooting tips, and add them where necessary.
  • Consider removing or de-emphasizing PowerShell and Cmd tabs unless the documentation is explicitly cross-platform, or clearly mark them as alternatives.
  • Audit for any references to Windows-only tools or patterns, and provide Linux equivalents or alternatives.
