Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by listing Windows-specific tools and workflows first (e.g., PowerShell, WebMatrix), providing explicit PowerShell/Windows CLI commands, and referencing Windows-centric development environments before their Linux or cross-platform equivalents. Linux and Mac alternatives are mentioned but not given equal prominence or detailed examples.
Recommendations:
  • Ensure that instructions for creating and deploying Node.js applications include Linux and macOS workflows (e.g., using Bash, Terminal, or cross-platform editors like VS Code) alongside or before Windows-specific tools.
  • When mentioning command-line interfaces, list Bash (Linux), Terminal (macOS), and PowerShell (Windows) in a neutral or rotating order, and provide equivalent command examples for each where relevant.
  • For retrieving connection strings or performing Azure operations, provide Azure CLI examples (which are cross-platform) before or alongside PowerShell commands.
  • Avoid referencing Windows-only tools (such as WebMatrix) without offering cross-platform alternatives.
  • Audit all step-by-step instructions to ensure Linux users are not left to infer steps or commands that are only explicitly shown for Windows.
