Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All VM creation instructions use Windows Server images, and all configuration and testing steps (such as installing IIS and editing files) are provided exclusively with Windows PowerShell commands and Windows-specific tools. There are no Linux VM examples, nor are there instructions for installing or configuring a web server on Linux. The test steps also assume a Windows desktop environment (using Microsoft Edge).
Recommendations:
  • Add parallel instructions for creating Linux-based VMs (e.g., Ubuntu or CentOS) alongside the Windows VM creation steps.
  • Provide Linux-specific commands for installing a web server (such as Apache or Nginx) and customizing the default web page, using bash or shell commands.
  • Include examples of connecting to Linux VMs using SSH (via Bastion or other means), not just RDP/Bastion for Windows.
  • When demonstrating testing steps, mention using a browser available on Linux (such as Firefox or Chromium) or using curl/wget from the command line.
  • Where possible, present both Windows and Linux instructions side-by-side, or clearly indicate which steps are OS-specific.
  • Avoid assuming the reader is using a Windows environment for all tasks; provide cross-platform guidance.
