Detected Bias Types
Windows First
Summary
The documentation lists .NET-based configuration providers first in all tables and feature matrices, with .NET Standard, ASP.NET Core, and .NET Framework libraries preceding Java, Python, JavaScript, and Go. However, the content covers cross-platform libraries and provides parity in feature tracking and sample links for all major languages, including Linux-friendly stacks. There are no Windows-specific tools, PowerShell examples, or exclusive references to Windows patterns.
Recommendations
- Consider rotating the order of provider libraries in tables or grouping by language family (e.g., statically typed, dynamically typed) to avoid implicit prioritization of Windows/.NET.
- Explicitly mention cross-platform compatibility for .NET Standard and ASP.NET Core providers, clarifying that they run on Linux/macOS as well as Windows.
- Add a brief note that all listed providers (except .NET Framework) are supported on Linux/macOS, to reassure non-Windows users.
- Ensure that future examples and sample links include Linux/macOS usage instructions where relevant.
