Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types

Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows and PowerShell. All code samples are written in PowerShell syntax, and instructions reference running commands in 'command prompt' and checking PowerShell installation. There are no Bash or Linux/macOS shell examples, nor any mention of how to run the automation on non-Windows platforms, despite Azure CLI being cross-platform.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Bash shell scripts for Linux/macOS users, using standard shell syntax and tools.
  • Include installation instructions and prerequisite checks for Azure CLI and PowerShell on Linux/macOS, not just Windows.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands can be run from any shell, and show examples in both PowerShell and Bash.
  • Avoid using PowerShell-specific constructs (e.g., $variable, Write-Host, try/catch) in generic CLI documentation, or provide alternatives.
  • Add a section explicitly addressing cross-platform usage and any OS-specific caveats.
