Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation provides examples for REST, PowerShell, and Azure CLI, but PowerShell is given a prominent position and is described with Windows-centric instructions (e.g., right-click to paste in Cloud Shell). The use of PowerShell cmdlets and references to Windows-specific interaction patterns (right-click, context menus) suggest a bias toward Windows users. ARMClient is mentioned as a command-line tool, but no Linux-specific alternatives or usage notes are provided. There is no explicit mention of Linux or cross-platform considerations in the examples or instructions.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions and examples for Linux and macOS users, especially for Azure CLI and REST usage.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI and REST examples are fully cross-platform and provide sample shell commands for bash/zsh.
  • When referencing Cloud Shell, note that it is available in browser and supports both bash and PowerShell, and provide paste instructions for Linux/macOS terminals.
  • Mention Linux-compatible tools (e.g., curl, httpie) for REST API calls alongside ARMClient.
  • Avoid Windows-centric terminology (e.g., right-click to paste) or provide alternative instructions for Linux/macOS users.
  • Ensure parity in troubleshooting and environment setup notes for both Windows and Linux platforms.
