Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation exhibits a mild Windows bias. In the prerequisites and setup sections, Windows PowerShell is mentioned explicitly as the example console application for running Azure CLI locally, with no mention of Linux or macOS terminal equivalents. Additionally, file path examples for upload and download operations use Windows-style paths (e.g., 'C:\myFolder\upload.txt') exclusively, with no Linux/macOS path examples provided. There are no references to Linux-specific tools, shells, or patterns, and no parity in file path examples.
Recommendations
  • Mention Linux/macOS terminal applications (e.g., Bash, Terminal) alongside Windows PowerShell when instructing users to open a command console.
  • Provide Linux/macOS file path examples (e.g., '/home/user/myFolder/upload.txt') alongside Windows paths in upload/download commands.
  • Add a note clarifying that Azure CLI works equally well on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and link to platform-specific installation instructions.
  • Where relevant, mention cross-platform considerations (e.g., path separators, shell differences) to help users on non-Windows systems.
