Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows/PowerShell bias by exclusively using Azure PowerShell cmdlets for enabling debug logging, with no Linux-native or cross-platform alternatives. All setup and removal examples are provided first and in detail for PowerShell, a Windows-centric tool, while Azure CLI (which is cross-platform and more common on Linux/macOS) is only mentioned as not supporting the feature or for read-only operations. There are no Bash, shell, or Linux-specific workflow examples, and the documentation assumes access to PowerShell for critical functionality.
Recommendations:
  • Provide parity for enabling debug logging in Azure CLI, or clearly document the lack of feature and suggest workarounds for Linux/macOS users.
  • If PowerShell is required, explicitly state that it is available cross-platform (via PowerShell Core) and provide installation instructions for Linux/macOS.
  • Include Bash or shell script examples where possible, especially for tasks like querying or deleting deployments.
  • Reorder sections or provide Azure CLI examples before PowerShell where CLI is supported, to avoid Windows-first bias.
  • Advocate for feature parity in Azure CLI, or link to feature requests/issues so Linux users can track progress.
