Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows, providing only Windows PowerShell examples and instructions for certificate creation. There are no Linux or cross-platform alternatives mentioned, and all tooling and workflows assume a Windows environment. The use of Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, Cert:\ store) is exclusive, and Linux users are not given guidance or parity in the documentation.
Recommendations:
  • Add equivalent Linux examples using OpenSSL for certificate creation, including step-by-step commands.
  • Mention cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, OpenSSL) and provide guidance for both Windows and Linux users.
  • Clearly indicate which steps are Windows-specific and offer alternative instructions for Linux/macOS environments.
  • Include a section or note at the start highlighting cross-platform options and linking to relevant Linux/macOS documentation.
  • Avoid assuming the user is on Windows; use neutral language and provide parallel workflows where possible.
