Bias Analysis
Bias Types:
⚠️
windows_first
⚠️
missing_linux_example
⚠️
windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively using Windows batch scripting syntax (set, for /f, %var%) in all variable and workflow examples, with no equivalent Bash/Linux examples provided. Windows command patterns are used throughout, and Linux/macOS users are only briefly mentioned in the context of running Azure CLI in Docker, but not in the main command examples.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Bash/Linux command examples for all workflows, especially for variable assignment and loops (e.g., using export, $(...), and while/read loops).
- Present both Windows and Linux/macOS command examples side-by-side or in tabs, ensuring parity for all steps.
- Avoid using only Windows batch scripting in example workflows; include Bash as a first-class citizen.
- Explicitly mention that the provided examples are for Windows, and direct Linux/macOS users to corresponding Bash examples.
- Where possible, use cross-platform Azure CLI features that work identically on all OSes, and highlight any OS-specific differences.
