Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows and PowerShell. All command-line examples use Azure PowerShell, with no mention of Azure CLI or Bash alternatives. The prerequisites and provisioning steps exclusively reference PowerShell, and there are no Linux or cross-platform instructions. Quickstart links also default to Windows or Visual Studio tabs, further reinforcing a Windows-centric approach.
Recommendations:
  • Provide equivalent Azure CLI (az) commands alongside PowerShell examples for provisioning and managing resources.
  • Include Linux/macOS-specific setup instructions, such as installing Azure CLI and authenticating with Azure Government.
  • Ensure quickstart links and code samples include tabs or options for Bash, Azure CLI, and non-Windows environments.
  • Avoid language in prerequisites and instructions that assumes the user is on Windows; mention cross-platform tools first or equally.
  • Add screenshots or terminal outputs from Linux/macOS environments where appropriate.
