Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation shows minor Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific tools and patterns, such as 'Node.js Cloud Service using Windows PowerShell' and using the term 'command prompt' throughout. These references appear before or alongside platform-neutral alternatives, but there are no Linux/macOS-specific instructions or examples. All code and CLI instructions are cross-platform, but the documentation subtly favors Windows terminology and resources.
Recommendations
  • Replace or supplement references to 'command prompt' with 'terminal' or 'shell' to be inclusive of Linux/macOS users.
  • Add explicit instructions or links for creating and deploying Node.js applications on Linux/macOS (e.g., using Bash or zsh).
  • When referencing deployment guides, include both Windows and Linux/macOS options, not just PowerShell.
  • Clarify that all CLI commands (npm, az login, node) work on Linux/macOS as well as Windows.
  • Avoid listing Windows-specific resources (e.g., PowerShell guides) before platform-neutral or Linux/macOS resources.
