Summary
The documentation exhibits a Windows-first bias in several areas: Windows-specific data types and examples are consistently listed before Linux equivalents, and Windows-centric tools and paths are referenced more frequently. Powershell/Windows command-line examples and screenshots are provided, while Linux-specific instructions are less detailed or absent. Query and alerting examples focus heavily on Windows paths and registry keys, with only minimal Linux daemon coverage. Some configuration options (like frequency sliders) are described only for Windows services, with no Linux equivalent or UI guidance.
Recommendations
  • Alternate the order of Windows and Linux examples and terminology to avoid consistently prioritizing Windows.
  • Provide equal detail and UI guidance for Linux-specific features (e.g., frequency configuration for Linux daemons).
  • Expand query and alerting examples to include more Linux-centric scenarios (e.g., /etc/hosts, /var/log, Linux package changes).
  • Include Linux command-line examples (e.g., bash, shell) where relevant, not just Powershell or Windows CLI.
  • Ensure that screenshots and UI walkthroughs are available for both Windows and Linux workflows.
  • Clarify any feature parity gaps and provide timelines or workarounds for Linux users where features are Windows-only.
