Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types

powershell_heavy
Summary
The documentation provides platform-specific instructions for activating Python virtual environments, listing Linux and macOS first, then Windows. The Windows example uses PowerShell syntax. However, all other steps, commands, and tooling are cross-platform (Visual Studio Code, Azure Functions Core Tools, Azurite) and do not show a strong Windows bias. No critical steps are Windows-only, and Linux/macOS users are given clear instructions.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit instructions or notes for using Command Prompt (cmd.exe) on Windows, as some users may not use PowerShell.
  • Add a short note clarifying that all shown tools (VS Code, Core Tools, Azurite) are cross-platform and provide links to Linux/macOS installation guides where relevant.
  • Consider listing Linux/macOS and Windows instructions in parallel (side-by-side tabs) rather than sequentially, to avoid any perceived ordering bias.
  • For any future examples, ensure parity by providing Linux/macOS equivalents if Windows-specific tools or patterns are mentioned.
