Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types

Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively providing examples for creating a Windows virtual machine, omitting Linux VM creation steps. Additionally, the PowerShell examples and references to Windows-specific tools are presented alongside Azure CLI, but there is no mention of Linux-specific considerations or examples. The Azure CLI installation link defaults to the Windows tab, and the VM creation uses a Windows image without offering a Linux alternative.
Recommendations
  • Add parallel examples for creating a Linux virtual machine (e.g., using --image UbuntuLTS in Azure CLI and the equivalent in PowerShell).
  • Include a section or tab for Linux-specific instructions, such as SSH key setup and Linux admin username conventions.
  • Ensure Azure CLI installation instructions are cross-platform, or at least link to Linux/macOS installation guides equally.
  • When referencing PowerShell, clarify that it is available cross-platform, or provide Bash alternatives where appropriate.
  • Use neutral language and ordering (e.g., 'Create a Windows or Linux virtual machine') to avoid implying Windows is the default or only supported OS.
