Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation provides both Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI examples for most tasks, but PowerShell is consistently presented first and in more detail. Some advanced operations, such as record set level resource locks, are only possible via PowerShell, with no Linux/macOS equivalent. There is a notable reliance on PowerShell, which is a Windows-centric tool, and some features are unavailable to CLI users, impacting Linux/macOS parity.
Recommendations
  • Present Azure CLI examples before or alongside PowerShell examples to avoid Windows-first bias.
  • Clearly indicate which features are unavailable in the Azure CLI and provide alternative guidance or workarounds for Linux/macOS users.
  • Advocate for parity in Azure CLI functionality, especially for resource lock operations at the record set level.
  • Add explicit notes or sections for Linux/macOS users, including installation and usage tips for Azure CLI.
  • Where PowerShell is required for advanced features, suggest using Azure Cloud Shell (which supports Bash and PowerShell) as a cross-platform workaround.
