Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
windows_first
missing_linux_example
Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows-first bias by referencing Windows-specific guidance before Linux equivalents and omitting detailed Linux onboarding instructions. The only explicit installation reference is for Windows, while Linux is only mentioned in the context of troubleshooting, not onboarding. This may make it harder for Linux users to follow the onboarding process.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit, step-by-step onboarding instructions for Linux virtual machines, paralleling the Windows guidance.
  • Include direct links to both Windows and Linux agent installation/configuration documentation in the onboarding steps, not just in troubleshooting.
  • Ensure that examples and references to VM creation, extension installation, and agent configuration are presented for both Windows and Linux, ideally side-by-side or in parallel sections.
  • Avoid placing Windows instructions or links before Linux equivalents unless there is a clear technical reason.
