Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation is largely cross-platform, focusing on Azure CLI commands that work on both Windows and Linux. However, there is evidence of Windows bias: (1) Example output for the Vault-Standard tier backup policy creation shows a Windows file path (C:\Users\testuser\Downloads\CLIForAFS\azure-cli>) and a Windows-style command prompt, (2) There is no mention of Linux-specific shell usage or file paths, and (3) No explicit Linux/Bash examples are provided, nor is there guidance for Linux users on file redirection or environment setup. The references to PowerShell and Azure PowerShell are present but only as alternatives, not in the main content.
Recommendations
  • Provide example outputs and command prompts for both Windows (cmd/PowerShell) and Linux (bash), e.g., show file redirection using '>' in both environments.
  • Include notes or sections for Linux users, such as how to prepare the environment, where files are stored, and how to run Azure CLI commands in bash.
  • Avoid showing only Windows file paths in example outputs; use generic or cross-platform paths, or alternate between Windows and Linux examples.
  • Explicitly state that all Azure CLI commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and link to platform-specific setup guides.
  • Where alternative tools (PowerShell, REST API) are mentioned, ensure parity by linking to Linux/Bash equivalents or documentation.
