Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows instructions and examples are consistently presented before Linux equivalents ('windows_first'). PowerShell and Windows command-line tools are emphasized, especially in sections on downloading and copying VHDs ('powershell_heavy', 'windows_tools'). The AzCopy usage example is shown only in PowerShell context, with no explicit Linux shell/Bash example ('missing_linux_example'). References to connecting to VMs and performing actions are often linked to Windows-centric instructions or tools before Linux alternatives.
Recommendations:
  • Present Linux and Windows instructions/examples in parallel or alternate the order to avoid always putting Windows first.
  • Provide explicit Bash/Linux shell examples for AzCopy commands, including sample output from a Linux terminal.
  • Include instructions for connecting to VMs using native Linux tools (e.g., SSH from a Linux terminal), not just referencing PowerShell.
  • Where possible, use platform-neutral language and tools, or clearly indicate when steps differ between platforms.
  • Add screenshots or terminal output from Linux environments where Windows screenshots are shown.
  • Ensure that all steps (such as stopping VMs, generating URLs, copying files) have Linux-specific guidance if the process differs.
