Bias Analysis
Bias Types:

windows_first
⚠️
powershell_heavy

windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias. In sections where both Windows and Linux are relevant (such as SKU availability), Windows examples and commands are listed before Linux equivalents. Automation examples are provided for both Azure CLI (cross-platform) and Azure PowerShell (Windows-centric), but no Linux shell or scripting examples are given. The UI instructions and screenshots are based on the Azure Portal, which is platform-agnostic, but the inclusion of Azure PowerShell as a primary automation method and the ordering of Windows before Linux in command examples suggest a subtle preference for Windows environments.
Recommendations:
- Provide Linux shell scripting examples (e.g., Bash) alongside Azure PowerShell for automation, or clarify that Azure CLI is fully cross-platform.
- Alternate the order of Windows and Linux examples, or present them in parallel, to avoid the perception of Windows-first bias.
- Explicitly state the cross-platform nature of Azure CLI and highlight its suitability for both Windows and Linux users.
- If referencing Azure PowerShell, consider also mentioning or linking to Bash scripting or other Linux-native automation approaches.
- Ensure that all features and steps are equally documented for both Windows and Linux, especially in sections where differences exist.
