Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
windows_tools
missing_linux_example
Summary
The documentation includes command-line examples that reference Windows file paths (e.g., C:\Users\Admin\Documents...) and the use of ARMClient, but does not provide equivalent examples or guidance for Linux or macOS users. There are no PowerShell-specific commands, but the exclusive use of Windows-style paths and lack of cross-platform CLI instructions indicates a Windows bias.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent command-line examples using Linux/macOS file paths (e.g., /home/user/Documents/...) alongside Windows examples.
  • Clarify whether ARMClient is available and supported on Linux/macOS, and provide installation/use instructions for those platforms if applicable.
  • Include Azure CLI examples, which are cross-platform, for authentication and API calls where possible.
  • Avoid using only Windows-style paths in documentation; use environment-agnostic placeholders or show both Windows and Unix-style paths.
  • Explicitly mention that the APIs and tools can be used from any OS, and link to relevant cross-platform tool documentation.
