Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively providing PowerShell examples for Azure CLI commands, explicitly stating PowerShell is used as the terminal of choice, and omitting equivalent Linux/macOS shell (bash) examples for resource setup and management. This may disadvantage users on Linux or macOS platforms, who typically use bash or other POSIX-compliant shells.
Recommendations
  • Provide all Azure CLI command examples in both PowerShell and bash syntax, or use bash as the default for cross-platform parity.
  • Avoid stating a Windows-specific shell as the default; instead, mention that users can use their preferred terminal (PowerShell, bash, etc.).
  • Add explicit instructions for Linux/macOS users, including any differences in environment setup, variable assignment, and command usage.
  • Where possible, use shell-agnostic Azure CLI commands and avoid PowerShell-specific variable assignment and command substitution patterns.
  • Include a note or section on platform compatibility, clarifying that the service and SDK are usable from Windows, Linux, and macOS.
