Bias Analysis
Bias Types:
⚠️
windows_first
⚠️
powershell_heavy
⚠️
windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation exhibits a Windows bias by presenting PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) instructions and prerequisites before CLI/Bash alternatives, and by referencing Windows tools (such as Git Bash for Windows) as the default Bash shell example. The CLI section also includes Windows-style path separators (\) in the template file path, which may confuse Linux users. There is little explicit mention or guidance for native Linux/macOS environments, and the overall structure prioritizes Windows/PowerShell workflows.
Recommendations:
- Alternate the order of PowerShell and CLI sections, or present CLI (Bash) examples first to balance platform emphasis.
- In the prerequisites, mention native Bash shells on Linux/macOS before or alongside Git Bash for Windows.
- Use POSIX-style (/) path separators in CLI examples, or provide both Windows and Linux/macOS variants.
- Explicitly state that the Azure CLI commands work natively on Linux/macOS terminals, not just in Windows environments.
- Where possible, provide additional notes or troubleshooting tips for Linux/macOS users, such as file path conventions or shell differences.
- Avoid language that implies PowerShell is the primary or default method, and ensure parity in detail and troubleshooting between PowerShell and CLI sections.
