Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ powershell_heavy
Summary:
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows and Visual Studio on Windows. All instructions, screenshots, and tooling references assume the user is on Windows, using Visual Studio, and deploying to Azure App Service (Windows). There are no examples or guidance for Linux or cross-platform development environments (e.g., Visual Studio Code, CLI, or deployment to App Service (Linux)). PowerShell and Windows-specific tools are used exclusively, with no mention of Bash, Azure CLI, or Linux-compatible workflows.
Recommendations:
  • Add parallel instructions and screenshots for Linux/macOS users, including using Visual Studio Code or JetBrains Rider.
  • Include examples using Azure CLI and Bash for all steps currently shown with PowerShell or Visual Studio GUI.
  • Provide guidance for deploying to Azure App Service (Linux) in addition to App Service (Windows).
  • Document how to run and debug the sample app using .NET CLI commands (dotnet run, dotnet publish) instead of only Visual Studio.
  • Show how to configure and connect to Azure SQL Database using cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure Data Studio, sqlcmd in Bash, or Azure CLI).
  • Explicitly state which steps are Windows-only and offer alternatives for other platforms where possible.
