Bias Analysis
Bias Types:
⚠️
windows_first
⚠️
missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias by exclusively providing instructions and screenshots for the Azure Portal (a web GUI) and omitting any command-line examples for Linux or cross-platform CLI tools such as Azure CLI or Azure PowerShell. There are no Linux shell or cross-platform automation examples for creating or assigning managed identities, nor are there references to Linux-specific workflows. The only automation example provided is in Bicep, which is cross-platform, but there are no CLI-based instructions for users who prefer or require command-line interfaces, especially on Linux.
Recommendations:
- Add Azure CLI examples for all major operations (creating UAMI, assigning roles, etc.), as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux.
- Include PowerShell examples only if parity with Azure CLI is maintained, and clearly indicate which examples are cross-platform.
- Explicitly mention that all operations can be performed from Linux, macOS, or Windows using the Azure CLI.
- Provide at least one end-to-end workflow using only CLI commands, suitable for Linux users.
- If screenshots are included, consider also providing terminal output or command snippets to ensure accessibility for users not using the Azure Portal.
