Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation exhibits a mild Windows bias. Windows terminology and resources are mentioned first or exclusively in several places: the prerequisites link only to Windows VM creation, and Windows-specific features (like Windows Registry and Software) are highlighted. While both Windows and Linux are referenced in the scope and some CLI examples, Linux-specific instructions or parity in examples are often missing or appear after Windows. There is also a lack of Linux-focused screenshots and portal navigation, and no Linux VM creation link in prerequisites.
Recommendations:
  • Add a link to Linux VM creation in the prerequisites section alongside the Windows VM link.
  • Ensure that all examples (especially CLI and portal workflows) show both Windows and Linux variants side by side, or alternate which comes first.
  • Include Linux-focused screenshots and portal navigation where appropriate.
  • Explicitly mention Linux file, package, and configuration tracking features in the introduction and throughout the documentation.
  • Review all sections for parity in detail and clarity between Windows and Linux instructions.
