Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
windows_first
powershell_heavy
Summary
The documentation presents both Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI examples for all major configuration steps, but PowerShell (which is most commonly used on Windows) is consistently listed before CLI, and the variable syntax in CLI examples uses Windows-style ($Var) rather than Linux-style (Var=). There are no explicit Linux shell examples (e.g., bash), and no mention of Linux-specific tools or patterns. The documentation assumes familiarity with PowerShell, which can be a barrier for Linux users. There is no explicit bias in terms of missing Linux functionality, but the ordering and example style favor Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Alternate the order of PowerShell and CLI examples, or list CLI first to improve parity for Linux users.
  • Use Linux shell variable syntax (e.g., Var="value") in CLI examples, or provide both Windows and Linux syntax.
  • Add explicit bash shell examples for CLI commands, showing how to run them on Linux.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI works cross-platform and provide guidance for Linux users where appropriate.
  • Avoid assuming PowerShell as the default scripting environment; mention bash/zsh as alternatives for Linux.
