Detected Bias Types
Powershell Heavy
Windows First
Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a bias toward Windows environments by exclusively using PowerShell syntax for all command-line examples (e.g., mkdir, cd, npm init, npm install, node search.js), and does not provide equivalent Linux/macOS shell commands (bash/sh/zsh). This may create confusion or extra effort for developers using Linux or macOS, as some PowerShell commands (e.g., mkdir, cd) have different syntax or behavior in bash. Additionally, the use of PowerShell is presented without alternatives, and there is no mention of Linux-specific tools, patterns, or troubleshooting.
Recommendations
- Provide all command-line examples in both PowerShell (Windows) and bash/sh (Linux/macOS) formats, either side-by-side or with tabs.
- Explicitly state that the examples are cross-platform and clarify any differences in command syntax or behavior.
- Include notes or troubleshooting tips for Linux/macOS users, such as file path conventions, environment variable setup, and package installation.
- Avoid assuming the use of PowerShell by default; use neutral or platform-agnostic commands where possible.
- Add a section or quickstart for Linux/macOS users to ensure parity and inclusivity.
