Bias Analysis

powershell_heavy
Summary
The documentation provides both Azure portal and Azure CLI instructions, which are cross-platform. However, there are several subtle Windows biases: Windows file paths and environment variables (e.g., %HOME%, D:\home\site\wwwroot) are used throughout, and Kudu DebugConsole is referenced with Windows-style paths. FTP upload instructions and screenshots reference Windows directories. The 'Automate with scripts' section lists Azure PowerShell samples before CLI samples, and PowerShell is mentioned as a scripting option, which is more Windows-centric. Linux-specific paths (/home) are mentioned but always after Windows equivalents. There are no explicit Linux/macOS shell examples (e.g., Bash), and no mention of Linux tools for file upload (such as SCP or SFTP).
Recommendations
  • Include Linux/macOS file path examples alongside Windows paths (e.g., /home/site/wwwroot).
  • Show both Windows and Linux environment variable usage (e.g., $HOME vs %HOME%).
  • Provide Bash shell examples for CLI usage and file uploads (e.g., using SCP/SFTP).
  • Clarify that Kudu DebugConsole and FTP are accessible from any OS, and show Linux/macOS usage.
  • List Azure CLI samples before PowerShell samples, or present them together.
  • Add screenshots or instructions for Linux/macOS users where relevant.
