Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types

Summary
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias. Visual Studio Code is listed as the sole prerequisite, which is cross-platform but often associated with Windows. In deployment instructions, PowerShell is mentioned before Bash/CLI, and PowerShell examples are presented alongside CLI examples, but the tab order and narrative often lead with PowerShell. The Azure portal instructions use Windows-style UI terms (e.g., 'File > Open File'), and the clean-up steps are portal-centric, which is platform-neutral but may feel more familiar to Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention that Visual Studio Code is available on Linux and macOS, or list alternative editors (e.g., Vim, nano) for Linux users.
  • Alternate the order of CLI and PowerShell tabs/examples, or default to CLI (which is more platform-agnostic) in the narrative.
  • Include Linux-specific instructions for file operations (e.g., using nano, vim, or command-line tools to open and edit files).
  • Clarify that the Azure portal and Cloud Shell are accessible from any OS, and highlight that Bash/CLI is available for Linux/macOS users.
  • Add a note that all steps can be performed on Linux, macOS, or Windows, and provide links to Linux/macOS setup guides if relevant.
