Summary
The documentation is mostly cross-platform in its instructions and code samples, but there is a subtle Windows bias in the references to development tools and supporting documentation. Specifically, the only explicit mention of a platform-specific tool is 'Windows PowerShell' in the context of deploying a Node.js app, and the phrase 'command prompt' is used throughout, which is more commonly associated with Windows than with Linux or macOS. There are no Linux- or macOS-specific instructions or examples, and the documentation does not clarify that all steps work equally well on non-Windows systems.
Recommendations
  • Replace or supplement references to 'command prompt' with 'terminal' or 'shell', and clarify that the instructions apply to Windows, Linux, and macOS.
  • When referencing supporting documentation (such as deploying Node.js apps), include links or notes for Linux/macOS equivalents alongside Windows/PowerShell instructions.
  • Explicitly state that all commands and code samples are cross-platform, or provide platform-specific notes where minor differences exist.
  • Mention popular Linux/macOS editors (such as Vim, nano, or Sublime Text) alongside Visual Studio Code, or simply refer to 'your preferred code editor'.
