Bias Analysis
Bias Types:

windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows/Powershell bias by providing only PowerShell scripts for advanced resource discovery (e.g., identifying Traffic Manager endpoints), without offering Bash, Azure CLI, or cross-platform alternatives. References to automation or scripting are exclusively PowerShell-based, and there are no Linux shell or Bash script equivalents. This may disadvantage users on Linux or macOS who do not use PowerShell.
Recommendations:
- For every PowerShell script or automation example, provide an equivalent Bash or Azure CLI script where possible, or at least reference cross-platform alternatives.
- Explicitly mention that PowerShell Core is cross-platform if PowerShell is the only option, and provide installation guidance for non-Windows users.
- When linking to scripts or tools, clarify their platform compatibility and offer guidance for Linux/macOS users.
- Instruct users on how to use Azure CLI (which is cross-platform) for resource discovery tasks, especially for scenarios where only PowerShell scripts are currently referenced.
- Review all automation and scripting guidance to ensure Linux and macOS users are not excluded or left with a more difficult workflow.
