Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
windows_first
powershell_heavy
windows_tools
Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas. In the VM-level monitoring section, Windows examples and screenshots are presented before Linux equivalents, and more detail is given to Windows tools (Explorer, dir command) than Linux (only df is mentioned). In the CLI/PowerShell section, PowerShell screenshots and references are prominent, while Linux shell examples are absent. The documentation also refers to Windows-specific patterns (Explorer, context menus) and provides more visual aids for Windows workflows.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux and Windows examples in parallel or alternate their order to avoid Windows-first bias.
  • Expand Linux coverage in CLI sections by including bash shell examples (e.g., using Azure CLI from bash, not just PowerShell).
  • Add screenshots and step-by-step instructions for Linux workflows, such as using the Azure CLI in a Linux terminal.
  • Mention Linux tools (e.g., lsblk, mount, df) with equal detail as Windows tools.
  • Ensure parity in visual aids: provide Linux screenshots for capacity reporting and management tasks.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and provide explicit instructions for both Windows and Linux environments.
