Bias Analysis
Bias Types:

missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a 'Windows-first' bias by exclusively referencing the Azure portal UI and Azure-specific workflows without mentioning or providing parity for Linux command-line tools or cross-platform automation (e.g., Azure CLI, Bicep, ARM templates, or scripting via Bash). There are no examples or instructions for configuring authentication using Linux-native tools or environments. The documentation also lacks explicit Linux or cross-platform command-line examples, focusing entirely on portal-based, GUI-driven steps that are platform-agnostic in appearance but implicitly favor Windows users due to the Azure ecosystem's historical alignment with Windows.
Recommendations:
- Add equivalent command-line instructions using Azure CLI (az), which is cross-platform and commonly used in Linux environments, for all major configuration steps (e.g., app registration, authentication provider setup, permission assignment).
- Include examples of automating configuration via ARM/Bicep templates or REST API calls, with sample Bash scripts for Linux users.
- Explicitly mention that all steps can be performed from any OS, and provide links or notes for Linux/macOS users where UI or tool differences may exist.
- Where application settings are referenced, show how to set them using CLI or scripting, not just through the Azure portal.
- Add a section or callout highlighting Linux/macOS developer workflows and tools for managing Microsoft Entra authentication in App Service/Azure Functions.
