Summary
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias in several areas. In the prerequisites, installation instructions for Node.js mention Windows and WSL before Linux. When configuring environment variables, Windows command prompt (setx) and PowerShell instructions are presented before Linux/macOS equivalents. Windows-specific tools and patterns (setx, PowerShell) are explicitly mentioned, while Linux instructions are more generic and less detailed. There are no missing Linux examples, but the ordering and emphasis favor Windows users.
Recommendations
- Present Linux/macOS instructions before or alongside Windows instructions, rather than after.
- Provide parity in detail and explanation for Linux/macOS commands (e.g., mention .bashrc/.zshrc for persistent environment variables).
- Include WSL as a Linux environment, but avoid conflating it with native Linux.
- Consider grouping environment variable instructions by OS, or using tabs for each platform to avoid implicit prioritization.
- Add troubleshooting notes for common Linux/macOS issues (e.g., shell persistence, permissions) as are often included for Windows.
- Review all examples and ensure equal visibility and clarity for Linux/macOS users.
