Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation generally aims for cross-platform parity, explicitly stating support for Linux, macOS, and Windows in most sections. However, there are subtle indications of Windows bias: Visual Studio (a Windows-only IDE) is listed first and most prominently in the C# section, and some instructions (such as changing the port in Visual Studio) are specific to Windows workflows. In the HTTP test tools section, PowerShell (primarily a Windows tool, though now cross-platform) and Microsoft Edge's Network Console (Windows-centric) are listed before curl, which is ubiquitous on Linux. There are no explicit Linux-only examples or tools highlighted, and Linux command-line workflows are not given priority or detailed examples.
Recommendations:
  • In each language section, list cross-platform tools (such as Visual Studio Code and command-line/terminal) before Windows-only tools like Visual Studio.
  • When describing environment-specific instructions (e.g., changing ports), provide equivalent steps for Linux/macOS environments or clarify if a step is Windows-specific.
  • In the HTTP test tools list, give equal or higher prominence to cross-platform and Linux-native tools like curl, httpie, or Postman, and clarify PowerShell's cross-platform availability.
  • Add explicit Linux/macOS command-line examples or workflows where relevant, especially in sections that currently reference Windows tools or UI.
  • Where possible, include screenshots or walkthroughs from Linux/macOS environments, not just Windows.
