Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias by exclusively using PowerShell commands for project setup and environment variable configuration, without providing equivalent Linux/macOS shell examples. All CLI and environment variable instructions are shown in PowerShell syntax, and there is no mention of Linux or macOS alternatives. This may hinder accessibility for developers on non-Windows platforms.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Bash (Linux/macOS) command examples alongside PowerShell, especially for directory creation, file creation, and setting environment variables.
  • Clearly indicate cross-platform compatibility for CLI commands (e.g., 'az maps account create' works on all platforms).
  • Add notes or sections for Linux/macOS users, including common shell commands (e.g., 'export VAR=value' for environment variables, 'mkdir', 'touch demo.py').
  • Consider using platform-agnostic instructions or explicitly showing both Windows and Linux/macOS command variants in all setup steps.
