Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types

Summary
The documentation provides examples for Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, and the Azure Portal. While Azure CLI is cross-platform, the inclusion of Azure PowerShell as a primary tab and the absence of explicit Linux/macOS shell examples (e.g., Bash) or notes about cross-platform compatibility may create a perception of Windows bias. PowerShell is traditionally associated with Windows, and its presence as a main example can signal a preference for Windows tooling. Additionally, the PowerShell example is listed before the Portal, which can reinforce this bias.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention that Azure CLI commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • Add a Bash shell example or clarify that the Azure CLI example is suitable for Bash and other Unix-like shells.
  • Consider reordering tabs or providing a note that PowerShell is available cross-platform, to reduce the perception of Windows-first bias.
  • If possible, add a section or note on using these queries in native Linux environments.
