Bias Analysis
Bias Types:
Summary:
The documentation does not display overt Windows bias in terms of tools, commands, or PowerShell usage. However, it lacks any platform-specific examples, and all SDK code samples are limited to C# (.NET) and JavaScript, with no Linux- or Unix-specific command-line, shell, or environment examples. There is no mention of Linux tools, shell commands, or cross-platform CLI usage, and the developer workflow is described entirely through the Azure Portal UI and SDKs, which may implicitly favor Windows/.NET developers.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit Linux/Unix command-line examples for provisioning and sending SMS, such as using the Azure CLI or cURL.
- Include Python SDK examples as soon as the SDK is available, and mention its roadmap.
- Clarify that the APIs and SDKs are cross-platform and can be used from Linux, macOS, and Windows environments.
- Provide guidance or links for headless/server-side provisioning and sending (e.g., via CLI or REST), not just Azure Portal UI.
- Mention any platform-specific requirements or parity (e.g., if all SDKs work identically on Linux and Windows).
