Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation generally presents both Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI options for resource creation, but in several places, PowerShell (commonly associated with Windows) is listed before Azure CLI. In the 'Alternate way to get the Azure Container Instance ID' section, the PowerShell example is given before the Azure CLI example. However, both tools are covered, and there are no exclusive Windows-only tools or missing Linux examples. The documentation does not show explicit bias in tool availability, but the ordering and occasional emphasis on PowerShell may subtly favor Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Alternate the order of PowerShell and Azure CLI examples throughout the documentation, or present CLI examples first to better reflect cross-platform parity.
  • Explicitly mention that both Azure CLI and PowerShell are available on Windows, Linux, and macOS to avoid the perception that PowerShell is Windows-only.
  • Where possible, provide Bash shell script examples alongside PowerShell, especially for command-line tasks.
  • Ensure that screenshots and UI references do not assume a Windows environment (e.g., avoid showing only Windows-style UI elements if possible).
