Bias Analysis
Bias Types:
⚠️
windows_first
⚠️
powershell_heavy
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias, particularly in the order and depth of examples. In the VM-level monitoring section, Windows instructions and screenshots are presented before Linux, with more detailed step-by-step guidance and multiple screenshots for Windows (Explorer, dir command), while Linux receives a single command-line example. In the CLI/PowerShell section, PowerShell is visually emphasized in screenshots, and while Azure CLI is mentioned, the visual examples are all PowerShell-based. There are no Linux-specific CLI examples or screenshots, and no mention of Linux shell environments in the context of automation or scripting.
Recommendations:
- Present Linux and Windows examples in parallel or alternate the order to avoid always placing Windows first.
- Provide equivalent depth for Linux: include screenshots of Linux file managers (e.g., Nautilus, Dolphin) showing volume properties, not just command-line output.
- In CLI/PowerShell sections, include explicit Linux shell (bash) examples and screenshots, not just PowerShell.
- Clarify that Azure CLI commands can be run from both Windows and Linux environments, and provide sample commands in both bash and PowerShell syntax.
- Where automation is discussed, mention Linux scripting options (e.g., bash scripts, cron jobs) alongside PowerShell.
- Ensure that all tooling and operational guidance is equally accessible and illustrated for both Windows and Linux administrators.
