Changes made

  1. docs/Installing-Oppia-(Mac-OS;-Python-3).md
  • “emulate” → “emulates”
  • Removed outdated “Dec 2018” reference and replaced with generic timing text
  • “vitual” → “virtual”
  • Updated “Macs with M1 chips” wording to “Macs with Apple Silicon” (future-proofed)
  • Standardized capitalization to use “Apple Silicon” consistently across the section to match Apple's official documentation.
  1. docs/Installing-Oppia-(Windows;-Python-3).md
  • Fixed punctuation: i.e, → i.e.,
  • Corrected wording in the intro paragraph:
  • “There follow…” → “The following are…”
  • “one of the four” → “one of the three”
  • Fixed typo: you windows system → your Windows system
  • Fixed typo twice: followedby → followed by
  • Capitalization fix: rdp → RDP in Step 7 heading / ToC
  • Fixed capitalization: Then Open → Then open
  • Fixed grammar + clarity in the wslu/PulseAudio sentence:
  • added comma after “installed”
  • rewrote “the starting Ubuntu app” → “the Ubuntu app on startup”
  • Standardized: 64bit → 64-bit
  • Removed extra word: the following the specific steps → the following specific steps
  • General capitalization consistency fixes (Windows / Ubuntu / Oppia) where applicable

Updates Apple Silicon wording and fixes minor typos per issues oppia#502, oppia#503, oppia#505.
Restored wording that switching to Intel architecture is required for Oppia development on Apple Silicon Macs, to avoid ambiguity for first-time setup.
