Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for all operations, but PowerShell is given equal prominence to CLI, and the 'Next steps' section exclusively links to a PowerShell tutorial. PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and its inclusion alongside CLI (which is cross-platform) may signal a Windows bias, especially since no explicit mention is made of Linux or macOS environments. There are no Linux-specific examples or notes, and the use of PowerShell is presented as a primary workflow.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state that Azure CLI works on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and recommend it as the default for cross-platform users.
  • In the 'Next steps' section, provide links to both CLI and PowerShell tutorials, or default to CLI.
  • Add a note clarifying that PowerShell examples are primarily for Windows users, while CLI is cross-platform.
  • Consider including Bash shell examples or notes for Linux/macOS users where relevant.
  • Highlight the cross-platform nature of Bicep and Azure CLI in the prerequisites or introduction.
