Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ windows_first
Summary:
The documentation provides only Windows-based instructions for configuring the backend VMs, specifically using Windows PowerShell to install and configure IIS. There are no examples or guidance for Linux VMs, such as using SSH or installing/configuring a web server like Apache or Nginx. The use of Windows tools and patterns is exclusive, and Linux alternatives are not mentioned or demonstrated.
Recommendations:
  • Add a parallel section for Linux VMs, including steps to connect via SSH and install/configure a web server (e.g., Apache or Nginx) with equivalent content.
  • Provide both Windows and Linux command examples side-by-side or clearly label each set of instructions for different OS types.
  • Mention Linux as a supported backend option early in the documentation to set expectations for cross-platform parity.
  • Where PowerShell or Windows-specific tools are referenced, also provide the Linux equivalent commands (e.g., apt/yum for package installation, echo/cat for file manipulation).
  • Include screenshots or terminal output for Linux steps, similar to the Windows examples.
