Bias Analysis
Bias Types:
⚠️
windows_first
⚠️
missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias by referencing Visual Studio Code and its Azure Functions extension as the primary development environment, and by mentioning the use of the Azure portal, terminal, or command prompt without explicitly referencing Linux or macOS alternatives. There are no explicit Linux-specific instructions or examples, and the workflow assumes familiarity with Windows-centric tools and patterns.
Recommendations:
- Explicitly mention that Visual Studio Code and the Azure Functions extension are cross-platform, and provide installation instructions for Linux and macOS.
- Include alternative instructions or notes for deploying and running Azure Functions using native Linux/macOS terminals and tools (e.g., bash, zsh), not just 'terminal' or 'command prompt'.
- Provide examples of environment variable management and local.settings.json creation for Linux/macOS users, including common CLI commands.
- Clarify that the Azure portal is web-based and accessible from any OS, and provide screenshots or notes that are OS-agnostic.
- If referencing command-line operations, include both Windows (cmd/PowerShell) and Linux/macOS (bash/zsh) equivalents where applicable.
