Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for managing IP filters, but PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is given its own dedicated section after the CLI. There are no Linux- or macOS-specific command-line or scripting examples, and no mention of platform differences or cross-platform considerations. The Azure CLI examples are cross-platform, but PowerShell is highlighted separately, which may suggest a Windows bias.
Recommendations
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands work on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and explicitly mention this cross-platform compatibility.
  • If including a dedicated PowerShell section, consider also including a Bash scripting example for Linux/macOS users, or at least acknowledge that PowerShell Core is available cross-platform.
  • Add a note or section about managing IP filters using Bash or other common Linux tools, if applicable.
  • Ensure screenshots and UI instructions are not Windows-specific (e.g., avoid showing only Windows browser or OS UI elements).
  • Where PowerShell is mentioned, clarify if the instructions are for Windows PowerShell or cross-platform PowerShell Core.
