Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias, particularly in troubleshooting steps for DNS and connectivity issues. Windows-specific tools (PsPing.exe), file paths (C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc), and editors (Notepad) are referenced exclusively, with no Linux/macOS equivalents or instructions. Examples and screenshots are Windows-centric, and Linux alternatives (e.g., using ping, editing /etc/hosts) are not mentioned. This may create friction for users running self-hosted IR on Linux VMs or macOS.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for all Windows-specific instructions, such as using 'ping' and editing '/etc/hosts' with nano or vi.
  • Mention cross-platform tools (e.g., 'ping' is available on all platforms; suggest 'nc' or 'curl' for port checks on Linux/macOS).
  • Include Linux/macOS file paths and commands alongside Windows examples.
  • Add screenshots or command-line examples for Linux environments where relevant.
  • Clarify that self-hosted IR can run on Linux and provide parity in troubleshooting steps.
