About This Page

This page is part of the Azure documentation. It contains code examples and configuration instructions for working with Azure services.

Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing only PowerShell automation examples for DNS setup and referencing PowerShell first when describing how to create a cluster. There are no equivalent Bash or Azure CLI script examples for Linux users, and the PowerShell approach is presented as the primary method for automation.
Recommendations:
  • Provide equivalent Bash/Azure CLI script examples for DNS automation tasks, ensuring Linux users can follow along without needing PowerShell.
  • When referencing how to create a cluster, mention Azure CLI and ARM templates before or alongside PowerShell, not after.
  • Add explicit Linux/macOS guidance or notes where automation or scripting is discussed, clarifying that all steps can be performed cross-platform.
  • Where possible, use cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, ARM templates) in code examples, or provide parallel examples for both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux (Bash/CLI).

<# This script is an example to help you get started with automation and can be adjusted based on your needs.
