Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell instructions, but PowerShell is given a dedicated section with detailed steps, and references to 'local PowerShell terminal' are made without equivalent explicit references to Linux shells. The troubleshooting section includes error messages and resolutions that mention Windows-specific issues (e.g., native modules lacking Windows binaries). There is no explicit mention or example of using Linux or macOS terminals, and no Bash-specific instructions for creating or configuring the web app, despite Bash being referenced only in the context of cloning the sample repository. The documentation assumes familiarity with PowerShell and Windows tools, and does not offer parity for Linux users in terms of terminal usage or troubleshooting.
Recommendations:
  • Add explicit Bash/Linux/macOS terminal instructions alongside PowerShell, especially in sections that currently only mention 'local PowerShell terminal'.
  • In the troubleshooting section, include Linux/macOS-specific error messages and resolutions, particularly for issues like native module builds and authentication dialogs.
  • When referencing tools or commands, avoid assuming PowerShell as the default; instead, provide parallel instructions for Bash or other common Linux shells.
  • Ensure that screenshots and UI references are OS-agnostic or provide alternatives for Linux/macOS users.
  • In the prerequisites and throughout the guide, clarify that all steps can be performed on Linux/macOS, and provide any OS-specific caveats or tips.
