Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation provides platform-specific command-line examples for Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI. The PowerShell example is presented before the Azure CLI example, which may suggest a Windows-first bias. The PowerShell example uses Windows-specific syntax, while the Azure CLI example uses 'set' and '%' variable syntax, which is also Windows-centric (rather than Bash-style 'export' and '$' variables for Linux/macOS). There are no explicit Linux shell examples, and the CLI example does not use cross-platform conventions.
Recommendations
  • Provide Azure CLI examples using Bash syntax (e.g., 'export' and '$VARIABLE') to ensure Linux/macOS parity.
  • Add notes or tabs clarifying which examples are for Windows (PowerShell, CMD) and which are for Linux/macOS (Bash).
  • Ensure that CLI examples use cross-platform variable syntax, or provide both Windows and Linux/macOS variants.
  • Consider listing Azure CLI (cross-platform) examples before PowerShell to avoid Windows-first ordering.
  • Explicitly mention that Azure CLI is available on all platforms and provide installation/use guidance for Linux/macOS users.
