Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation consistently presents both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for deployment, resource review, and cleanup. However, PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is given equal prominence to Azure CLI, and is always presented immediately after CLI, rather than as a secondary or platform-specific option. There are no Linux-specific instructions, nor any mention of platform differences or guidance for Linux/macOS users. The documentation implicitly assumes parity between CLI and PowerShell, but PowerShell is primarily used on Windows, which may suggest a subtle Windows bias.
Recommendations
  • Clearly indicate that Azure CLI is cross-platform and preferred for Linux/macOS users, while PowerShell is primarily for Windows.
  • Add notes or callouts specifying which commands are platform-agnostic (CLI) and which are Windows-centric (PowerShell).
  • Consider presenting Azure CLI examples first, with PowerShell as an alternative for Windows users.
  • Include explicit instructions or troubleshooting tips for Linux/macOS environments, such as shell compatibility or installation links.
  • If PowerShell Core (cross-platform) is supported, clarify its usage and differences from Windows PowerShell.
