Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
powershell_heavy
windows_first
Summary
The documentation provides both Bash and PowerShell examples for every command, ensuring that both Linux/macOS and Windows users are supported. However, PowerShell is given equal prominence to Bash throughout, which is uncommon for Linux/macOS users, and may create friction for those unfamiliar with PowerShell. In some sections, PowerShell examples are shown immediately after Bash, rather than Bash-only or Bash-first, which is a subtle form of Windows bias.
Recommendations
  • Consider making Bash the default or primary example, with PowerShell as a secondary tab or footnote, since Bash is the standard shell on Linux/macOS and Azure Cloud Shell.
  • Explicitly note that Bash examples work on Linux/macOS and Azure Cloud Shell, while PowerShell is primarily for Windows users.
  • Add a short section clarifying which shell is recommended for each platform.
  • Where possible, avoid presenting PowerShell as equally standard for Linux/macOS users.
