Bias Analysis
Bias Types:
⚠️
windows_first
⚠️
powershell_heavy
Summary:
The documentation provides both Bash and PowerShell examples for all Azure CLI commands, but consistently presents Bash examples first, followed by PowerShell. There is a note clarifying that examples can run in either shell and that differences in variable syntax are addressed with separate examples. No Windows-specific tools or patterns are mentioned, and Linux parity is generally maintained. However, the explicit labeling of 'Formatted for PowerShell' and the inclusion of PowerShell-specific syntax throughout indicate a slight bias toward Windows/PowerShell users, though not to the exclusion of Linux users.
Recommendations:
- Continue to provide both Bash and PowerShell examples, but consider alternating the order in which they are presented or grouping them side-by-side to avoid implicit prioritization.
- Explicitly state in the prerequisites that all examples are cross-platform and tested on both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux/macOS (Bash).
- Where possible, use variable syntax that is compatible across shells, or provide a table summarizing syntax differences.
- Ensure that any referenced scripts or downloadable assets are compatible with both Bash and PowerShell environments.
