Bias Analysis
Bias Types:

windows_first

missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation provides detailed PowerShell instructions and references Visual Studio (a Windows-centric tool) for enabling managed identity, with PowerShell examples presented before Azure CLI. There is no mention of Linux-specific workflows, nor are there examples using Bash or Linux-native tools, which may disadvantage users on non-Windows platforms.
Recommendations:
- Provide explicit Bash/Linux shell examples for all command-line instructions, especially for steps involving Azure CLI.
- Mention and demonstrate cross-platform editors and deployment tools (such as VS Code, Azure CLI, or GitHub Actions) alongside or instead of Visual Studio.
- Ensure that all code snippets and instructions are tested and presented in a way that is platform-agnostic, or clearly indicate when a step is Windows-specific.
- Consider reordering examples to present Azure CLI or Bash first, as these are cross-platform, before PowerShell.
- Add a note clarifying that all steps can be performed on Linux, macOS, or Windows, and provide links to relevant setup guides for each OS.
