Functions Infrastructure As Code

Bias Analysis

Bias Types:

⚠️ windows_first

⚠️ powershell_heavy

Summary:

The documentation provides both Windows and Linux examples for most ARM/Bicep template scenarios, and covers Linux-specific hosting plans (e.g., Flex Consumption, Container Apps, Azure Arc) in detail. However, there is a consistent pattern of presenting Windows examples and terminology before Linux equivalents, especially in code tabs and explanatory text. Additionally, the only explicit command-line deployment examples outside of Azure CLI are for PowerShell, with no Bash or cross-platform shell equivalents provided. Some references to tools (e.g., Visual Studio Code extensions) are cross-platform, but the deployment section is PowerShell-centric.

Recommendations:

Alternate the order of Windows and Linux examples/tabs, or present Linux first where it is the default or recommended platform.
Provide Bash or cross-platform shell equivalents for all PowerShell deployment examples, especially for template deployment and resource group creation.
Explicitly mention that all ARM/Bicep templates and Azure CLI commands are cross-platform, and provide sample commands for both Windows and Linux environments.
Where possible, use neutral language (e.g., 'on your system' instead of 'on Windows') unless the content is truly OS-specific.
Highlight Linux-specific considerations or best practices earlier in the document, not only as addenda to Windows instructions.

### [Visual Studio Code](#tab/vs-code) In [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/), install the latest [Bicep extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-azuretools.vscode-bicep) or [Azure Resource Manager Tools extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=msazurermtools.azurerm-vscode-tools). These extensions report syntactic errors in your code before deployment. For some examples of errors, see the [Fix validation error](../azure-resource-manager/troubleshooting/quickstart-troubleshoot-arm-deployment.md#fix-validation-error) section of the troubleshooting article. --- You can also create a test resource group to find [preflight](../azure-resource-manager/troubleshooting/quickstart-troubleshoot-arm-deployment.md?tabs=azure-cli#fix-preflight-error) and [deployment](../azure-resource-manager/troubleshooting/quickstart-troubleshoot-arm-deployment.md?tabs=azure-cli#fix-deployment-error) errors. ## Deploy your template You can use any of the following ways to deploy your Bicep file and template: ### [Bicep](#tab/bicep) - [Azure CLI](../azure-resource-manager/bicep/deploy-cli.md) - [PowerShell](../azure-resource-manager/bicep/deploy-powershell.md) ### [ARM template](#tab/json) - [Azure portal](../azure-resource-manager/templates/deploy-portal.md) - [Azure CLI](../azure-resource-manager/templates/deploy-cli.md) - [PowerShell](../azure-resource-manager/templates/deploy-powershell.md) --- ### Deploy to Azure button > [!NOTE] > This method doesn't support deploying Bicep files currently.
