Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All command-line examples use Windows PowerShell, and there are no Linux or cross-platform shell equivalents. The instructions for testing connectivity and installing Microsoft Azure Storage Explorer are written as if the user is on a Windows VM, with no mention of Linux or macOS alternatives. The Storage Explorer installation link defaults to Windows, and there are no Bash or Linux command examples for DNS resolution or connectivity testing.
Recommendations:
  • Provide equivalent Linux (Bash) and macOS command-line examples alongside PowerShell, such as using 'nslookup' or 'dig' in Bash.
  • Clarify that Microsoft Azure Storage Explorer is available on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and provide installation instructions or links for all platforms.
  • When instructing users to open a shell, specify both PowerShell (for Windows) and Bash/Terminal (for Linux/macOS), with corresponding commands.
  • Avoid assuming the VM is running Windows; include steps for both Windows and Linux VMs, or specify OS-agnostic instructions where possible.
  • Where possible, use cross-platform tools and commands, or clearly indicate platform-specific steps.
