Summary
The documentation provides both Bash and PowerShell examples for key CLI operations, but PowerShell is given equal prominence to Bash, which can indicate a Windows-centric approach. There are no explicit Linux-only or Windows-only tools, but the inclusion of PowerShell tabs and examples throughout, rather than focusing on Bash (which is more universal across platforms), suggests a slight Windows bias. However, Linux-specific instructions (e.g., editing k3s config with nano, using systemctl) are present, and no steps are missing for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • List Bash examples before PowerShell, as Bash is available on both Linux and Windows (via WSL or Git Bash), while PowerShell is less common on Linux.
  • Clarify that Bash examples are cross-platform and can be used on Windows via WSL or Git Bash.
  • Consider providing a single Bash example by default, with PowerShell as an optional/secondary tab for Windows users.
  • Explicitly mention that all CLI commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows (with Bash or PowerShell), to reinforce cross-platform parity.
  • If possible, provide guidance for macOS users as well, or clarify that instructions are valid for both Linux and macOS.
