Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
windows_first
powershell_heavy
Summary
The documentation page shows a Windows bias by mentioning Azure PowerShell before Azure CLI when describing how to run Bicep examples. The initial instructions suggest using Azure CLI or Azure PowerShell, which are both available cross-platform, but PowerShell is traditionally associated with Windows. There are no explicit Linux-specific instructions, nor is there mention of Linux-native tools or shell patterns (e.g., Bash). No Linux-specific examples or parity checks are present.
Recommendations
  • Mention Azure CLI first, as it is more commonly used cross-platform, including on Linux and macOS.
  • Explicitly state that all examples can be run on Linux, macOS, and Windows using Azure CLI.
  • Include example commands for deploying Bicep files using Bash (Linux/macOS) and PowerShell (Windows), showing parity.
  • Add a note or section clarifying platform compatibility and providing links to installation instructions for Azure CLI and PowerShell on all major operating systems.
  • Avoid implying PowerShell is the default or preferred option unless justified by technical reasons.
