Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ windows_heavy_examples
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a clear Windows bias. Windows platforms (WNS, MPNS) and related credential objects are consistently mentioned first and in greater detail than their Linux or cross-platform counterparts. Many code examples focus on Windows-specific push notification services (WNS, MPNS), and Windows credential setup is shown as the primary example. There is no mention of Linux-specific tools, shell commands, or development patterns, and the documentation assumes familiarity with Windows notification concepts.
Recommendations:
  • Provide equal prominence to Android (FCM) and iOS (APNS) examples and credential setup, not just Windows.
  • Include Linux/macOS shell command equivalents (e.g., show how to build with Maven using bash/sh, not just 'cmd').
  • Reorder examples so that cross-platform or most widely-used platforms (Android/iOS) are presented before or alongside Windows.
  • Add explicit notes or sections for Linux/macOS users, including troubleshooting and environment setup.
  • Ensure that links and sample projects are not Windows-centric and include cross-platform sample apps.
