• WindowsPowerShell, the TLS pre-line, winget bootstrapping, and the hard-link-then-symlink-then-copy strategy.
• macOSTerminal, why the bundled Python is usually too old, and the Homebrew-backed runner coverage.
• LinuxAny terminal, what the apt bootstrap does, and what to install yourself on Fedora, Arch or openSUSE.
