Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_first
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias by referencing PowerShell before Azure CLI in deployment instructions and error handling, and by providing explicit PowerShell parameter usage examples. While Azure CLI is mentioned, PowerShell is consistently listed first and receives more detailed treatment. There are no Linux-specific examples, and the documentation does not mention Linux tools or shell environments.
Recommendations:
  • Present Azure CLI and PowerShell instructions in parallel, or alternate which is listed first to avoid implying preference.
  • Provide explicit Linux shell (bash) examples for deploying ARM templates, including command-line syntax and parameter usage.
  • Include a section or callout for Linux/macOS users, clarifying that all steps are cross-platform and providing any OS-specific notes if needed.
  • Where error messages reference PowerShell, also show the equivalent CLI/Linux troubleshooting steps.
  • Avoid using 'PowerShell' as the default or primary example unless there is a technical reason to do so.
