Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_first
Summary:
The documentation provides only Windows-style (DOS path) examples for npm commands (e.g., using C:\ paths), with no Linux or cross-platform path examples. This may confuse or exclude Linux/macOS users. While the YAML pipeline uses Ubuntu as the build agent, all explicit command-line examples and paths are Windows-centric, and Linux alternatives are not mentioned or shown.
Recommendations:
  • Provide Linux/macOS equivalent examples for all command-line instructions, especially for npm commands (e.g., use /home/user/DataFactories/DevDataFactory as a path example).
  • When showing file paths, use both Windows (C:\...) and Linux (/home/...) formats, or use environment variables and relative paths where possible.
  • Explicitly state that the npm package and commands are cross-platform, and clarify any OS-specific considerations.
  • In the 'Export ARM template' and 'Validate' sections, add Linux/macOS command-line examples alongside the Windows ones.
  • Consider using forward slashes in paths or note that both path styles are supported, depending on the OS.
