Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a clear Windows bias, especially in the 'Install IIS' section, where only Windows Server VMs and PowerShell commands are provided. There are no instructions or examples for deploying Linux VMs or installing a web server (such as Apache or Nginx) on Linux. The VM creation steps default to Windows Server images, and all post-deployment configuration is Windows-specific, with no Linux parity.
Recommendations:
  • Add parallel instructions for creating Linux VMs (e.g., using Ubuntu or CentOS images) alongside the Windows VM steps.
  • Provide Linux-specific examples for installing a web server (such as Apache or Nginx) using bash commands (e.g., apt or yum) and updating the default web page.
  • Include both Windows and Linux options in the 'Image' selection step when creating VMs.
  • Show both PowerShell and bash/SSH command examples for post-deployment configuration.
  • Explicitly mention that the quickstart supports both Windows and Linux, and provide links to Linux-focused tutorials if available.
