Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
Summary:
The documentation provides environment variable setup instructions for Windows, Linux, and macOS, but presents the Windows instructions first. All other examples (Python code, Azure CLI) are cross-platform and do not show Windows-specific tools or patterns. There are no missing Linux examples, and no use of Windows-only tools such as PowerShell or CMD beyond the environment variable setup.
Recommendations:
  • Rotate the order of OS-specific tabs or present Linux/macOS instructions first to avoid implicit prioritization of Windows.
  • Explicitly state that all Python and Azure CLI commands work identically across Windows, Linux, and macOS.
  • Where possible, use neutral language such as 'On your operating system' before presenting tabbed instructions.
  • Ensure that any references to editors or tools (e.g., Visual Studio) are accompanied by cross-platform alternatives (e.g., VS Code, PyCharm).

Flagged Code Snippets

To set the value, use the option for your environment. #### [Windows](#tab/windows)
> [!NOTE] > If you only need to access the environment variable in the current running console, you can set the environment variable with `set` instead of `setx`. After you add the environment variables, you may need to restart any running programs that will need to read the environment variable, including the console window. For example, if you're using Visual Studio as your editor, restart Visual Studio before running the example. #### [Linux](#tab/linux)
