Bias Analysis

Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing Windows tools (SQL Server Management Studio) for database operations, omitting any mention of Linux-compatible alternatives. All instructions for interacting with the database assume the use of SSMS, and there are no examples or guidance for users on Linux or macOS platforms. No PowerShell-specific commands are present, but the overall workflow and tooling references are Windows-centric.
Recommendations:
- Include instructions for connecting to Azure SQL Managed Instance using cross-platform tools such as Azure Data Studio, sqlcmd, or DataGrip, alongside or instead of SQL Server Management Studio.
- Provide command-line examples (e.g., using sqlcmd) for creating tables, enabling CDC, and modifying data, so Linux and macOS users can follow along without SSMS.
- Explicitly mention that the steps can be performed from any OS, and list the supported tools for each platform.
- Where screenshots are shown for SSMS, consider adding equivalent screenshots or terminal outputs for cross-platform tools.
- Add a section or note at the beginning of the tutorial clarifying that all database operations can be performed from Linux, macOS, or Windows, and provide tool recommendations for each.
