Greptile Summary

This PR adds a single-line note below the Unix installation command in README.md, explaining that users may substitute 1.9.0 with the latest stable version of Appwrite. The intent is helpful, but the implementation has two gaps worth addressing before merging.

  • Incomplete coverage: The note is placed only under the ### Unix section. The ### Windows > CMD and ### Windows > PowerShell blocks use the same hard-coded 1.9.0 version and receive no equivalent note, leaving Windows users without the same guidance.
  • Missing version reference link: The note advises replacing the version but does not point users to where they can find the latest release (e.g., the GitHub releases page). Adding a hyperlink would make the note immediately actionable.

Confidence Score: 4/5

  • Safe to merge — documentation-only change with no functional impact, though the note should ideally be applied to all platform sections for consistency.
  • The change is a pure documentation addition that cannot break any functionality. The two style issues (incomplete platform coverage and missing link) are improvements rather than blockers, so the PR is close to merge-ready.
  • README.md — note should be extended to the Windows CMD and PowerShell sections and enhanced with a link to the latest release.

Important Files Changed

Filename Overview
README.md Adds a version-replacement note after the Unix installation block; note is not applied to the Windows CMD/PowerShell blocks and lacks a link to the latest release page.
