Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias by providing PowerShell-based examples for generating and retrieving managed identities, referencing the Azure portal (which is often Windows-centric in screenshots and workflows), and omitting equivalent CLI (az), Bash, or Linux-native instructions. PowerShell is presented as the primary or only scripting interface, and no Linux shell or cross-platform command-line examples are given. This may hinder Linux users or those working in cross-platform environments.
Recommendations:
  • Add Azure CLI (az) examples for all PowerShell-based instructions, including generating and retrieving managed identities.
  • Include Bash shell command examples where applicable, especially for REST API calls (e.g., using curl).
  • Present CLI/Bash examples before or alongside PowerShell to avoid the impression that Windows is the default or preferred environment.
  • Clarify that all operations can be performed on Linux/macOS as well as Windows, and provide explicit cross-platform guidance.
  • Where screenshots or UI flows are shown, note any differences for non-Windows users or provide alternative instructions if needed.
