Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation provides both Windows and Linux examples and covers both OSes in detail. However, there is a noticeable Windows bias: PowerShell examples and references are often presented first, Windows-specific tools (e.g., Get-FileHash, PowerShell customizer, WindowsRestart, WindowsUpdate) are described in more detail, and Windows terminology and commands are frequently referenced before Linux equivalents. Some instructions for generating checksums and managing identities use Windows/PowerShell tools as the primary example, with Linux alternatives mentioned but less emphasized. There are also Windows-only customizers (WindowsRestart, WindowsUpdate) without Linux equivalents, but this is explicitly documented.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux and Windows examples in parallel or alternate which is shown first.
  • When referencing tools for tasks (e.g., generating SHA256 checksums), provide Linux/macOS commands (sha256sum) before or alongside Windows/PowerShell commands.
  • Expand Linux-specific guidance (e.g., shell customizer, file paths, troubleshooting) to match the detail provided for Windows.
  • Where Windows-only customizers exist, clearly state Linux alternatives or limitations.
  • Ensure that validation and customization examples for Linux are as detailed as Windows examples.
  • Add links to Linux/macOS documentation for relevant Azure CLI and scripting tasks.
