Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation generally maintains cross-platform parity, but there is a subtle Windows bias in the ordering and emphasis of SSH client options. Windows-specific tools and installation instructions are given more prominence and detail, and Windows options are listed before Linux equivalents in some sections. However, Linux/Unix commands and workflows are well represented throughout, and most command-line examples use standard ssh/scp syntax applicable to all platforms.
Recommendations
  • When listing SSH client options, mention Linux/Unix/macOS built-in support first, as these platforms natively include SSH, then follow with Windows installation instructions.
  • Ensure that graphical SSH clients (e.g., PuTTY, MobaXterm) are not described as primary or default for Windows, but as alternatives, and clarify their cross-platform availability if relevant.
  • Where PowerShell or Windows-specific command-line tools are referenced (e.g., New-AzHdinsightCluster), provide equivalent Linux/macOS CLI commands or note their parity.
  • In authentication and SSH key generation sections, clarify that ssh-keygen and ssh-agent are available on all major platforms, including Windows (via OpenSSH or WSL), to reinforce parity.
  • Review the order of presentation in all sections to avoid consistently mentioning Windows before Linux/Unix/macOS, as this subtly prioritizes the Windows experience.
