Bias Analysis

windows_first
Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias primarily in the authorization step, where only PowerShell cmdlets (Set-CsTeamsAcsFederationConfiguration, Set-CsExternalAccessPolicy) are referenced for tenant configuration, with no mention of Linux/macOS alternatives or cross-platform CLI options. The prerequisites and steps assume access to Windows-centric tools and administrative patterns. While the code samples are cross-platform, the administrative setup is Windows-first and PowerShell-heavy.
Recommendations
  • Include equivalent instructions for configuring Teams federation and external access using Microsoft Teams Admin Center (web UI), which is accessible from any OS.
  • Provide guidance for using Microsoft Graph API or Azure CLI for tenant-level and user-level configuration, if available, to support Linux/macOS users.
  • Explicitly state whether PowerShell cmdlets can be run on PowerShell Core on Linux/macOS, and provide installation instructions if so.
  • Add notes or links to cross-platform administrative tools and patterns where possible.
  • Review all prerequisite steps to ensure they do not assume a Windows environment, and clarify any platform-specific requirements.
