Summary
The documentation page shows mild Windows bias: Windows installation links are listed first for several tools, and there are specific notes about using cmd.exe instead of PowerShell on Windows, as well as PowerShell's curl alias. Linux installation instructions are less detailed or referenced generically (e.g., 'install curl package'). There are no explicit Linux/macOS command examples or troubleshooting notes, and Windows-specific patterns are mentioned without Linux equivalents.
Recommendations
  • Present installation instructions for all platforms (Windows, Linux, macOS) side-by-side or in parallel, rather than listing Windows first.
  • Provide explicit Linux/macOS command examples (e.g., apt, yum, brew) for installing tools like curl.
  • Include troubleshooting notes or platform-specific caveats for Linux/macOS users, similar to those given for Windows/PowerShell.
  • Avoid Windows-centric language (e.g., 'use cmd.exe and not Windows PowerShell') unless also providing equivalent Linux/macOS guidance.
  • Clarify that PowerShell's curl alias does not apply to Linux/macOS, and provide native curl usage examples for those platforms.
