Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
powershell_heavy
windows_first
windows_tools
Summary
The documentation provides multiple PowerShell examples for resizing VMs, including detailed scripts for both standalone VMs and VMs in availability sets. PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and its examples are more extensive and appear before Azure CLI examples. The Terraform section references a Windows VM quickstart and highlights Windows-specific code. While Azure CLI examples are present and cross-platform, the prominence and depth of PowerShell content, along with references to Windows tools and examples, indicate a Windows-first bias. Linux-specific examples or parity in scripting depth are missing.
Recommendations
  • Expand CLI examples to match the depth and scenarios covered in PowerShell (e.g., availability sets, error handling).
  • Add explicit Bash shell examples for Linux users, including how to run Azure CLI commands in Bash.
  • Provide Terraform examples for azurerm_linux_virtual_machine alongside Windows examples.
  • Ensure that Linux VM scenarios are referenced equally in code samples and explanations.
  • Consider reordering sections so that cross-platform tools (Azure CLI, Terraform) are presented before Windows-specific tools (PowerShell).
