Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ powershell_heavy
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by providing only Windows-centric instructions for connecting to the VM (using RDP and .rdp files), referencing Windows tools (IIS, RDP), and giving a PowerShell-only example for resource cleanup. There are no Linux/SSH examples or mentions of Linux tools, and Windows patterns are presented exclusively.
Recommendations:
  • Add parallel instructions for connecting to the VM via SSH for Linux-based VMs, including how to obtain the public IP and use an SSH client.
  • Include examples for cleaning up resources using Azure CLI (az group delete) and Bash scripts, not just PowerShell.
  • Mention Linux-based web servers (such as Apache or Nginx) as alternatives to IIS, or clarify if the template can deploy Linux VMs.
  • When referencing connection methods, present both Windows (RDP) and Linux (SSH) options, or clarify OS-specific steps.
  • Ensure that all code snippets and tool references have Linux equivalents or alternatives.
