Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by presenting all local development environment setup steps using Windows-specific commands (cmd, Notepad, DEL, MKDIR) and explicitly stating that the environment is Windows 10. There are no equivalent Linux (bash, nano/vim, rm, mkdir) instructions or examples, and Windows tools are referenced exclusively for editing and file management. While the Hadoop cluster interaction uses SSH and bash commands (which are cross-platform), the initial project creation and editing workflow is only documented for Windows users.
Recommendations:
  • Provide parallel Linux/macOS instructions for all environment setup steps, including directory creation, file deletion, and file editing (e.g., use 'mkdir', 'rm', 'nano' or 'vim').
  • Present both Windows and Linux/macOS command examples side by side or in tabs, so users on any platform can follow along easily.
  • Avoid referencing Windows tools (like Notepad) exclusively; mention cross-platform editors or provide alternatives (e.g., VS Code, nano, vim).
  • Clarify that the instructions are applicable to all platforms, and explicitly state any platform-specific differences.
  • Consider using platform-agnostic language and commands wherever possible, especially for Java/Maven-based workflows.
