Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias by listing Windows instructions and links before Linux/macOS equivalents, and by linking to the Windows-specific Azure CLI installation page in the prerequisites. However, the environment variable setup provides parity across Windows, macOS, and Linux, and the main CLI examples are cross-platform.
Recommendations:
  • In the prerequisites, link to the general Azure CLI installation page or provide links for all major platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux) equally.
  • When presenting OS-specific instructions (such as setting environment variables), rotate or randomize the order, or present Linux/macOS first in some cases to avoid always privileging Windows.
  • Ensure that all examples and instructions are equally detailed for each platform, and avoid referencing Windows-specific tools (e.g., Visual Studio) without mentioning cross-platform alternatives (e.g., VS Code, JetBrains Rider).
  • Consider adding a short note at the start clarifying that all instructions are available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and that the Azure CLI is fully cross-platform.
