Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
powershell_heavy
windows_first
Summary
The documentation consistently lists PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) as the first example for querying VM sizes and images, and provides explicit PowerShell commands alongside Azure CLI and API options. While Linux is mentioned as a supported platform and Azure CLI examples are provided, the ordering and prominence of PowerShell may subtly signal a Windows-first approach. There are no Linux/macOS-specific shell examples (e.g., Bash), nor are Linux-specific tools or patterns discussed.
Recommendations
  • Alternate the order of example tools so that Azure CLI (cross-platform) is listed before PowerShell.
  • Add explicit Bash shell examples where appropriate, especially for Linux/macOS users.
  • Include notes or sections highlighting Linux/macOS usage patterns or considerations, such as environment variables, file system paths, or troubleshooting.
  • Clarify that all commands (Azure CLI, API) are cross-platform and provide guidance for Linux/macOS users where PowerShell is mentioned.
  • Consider adding screenshots or walkthroughs from a Linux/macOS perspective.
