Detected Bias Types
Windows First
Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing Visual Studio Code (VS Code) and Azure DevOps workflows, with all examples and instructions assuming a Windows environment. There are no mentions of Linux-specific tools, shell commands, or alternative editors. All terminal instructions use generic 'command prompt' language, which is ambiguous but typically associated with Windows. There are no explicit PowerShell commands, but the lack of Linux shell (bash) examples and absence of guidance for Linux users (e.g., installing VS Code, using bash, or handling file paths) indicates a bias toward Windows.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit instructions and examples for Linux users, including bash shell commands and Linux file path conventions.
- Clarify that Visual Studio Code and Azure DevOps are cross-platform, and include installation steps for Linux.
- Add screenshots and examples showing the workflow on Linux (e.g., using the integrated terminal in VS Code on Ubuntu).
- Mention alternative editors or command-line tools that Linux users might prefer, such as Vim or nano, where appropriate.
- Ensure that all Git commands and file operations are compatible with both Windows and Linux, and note any platform-specific differences.
