Bias Analysis
Bias Types:
⚠️
windows_first
⚠️
powershell_heavy
⚠️
missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by consistently mentioning PowerShell before Azure CLI, grouping them together as primary command-line interfaces, and not providing explicit Linux-specific examples or guidance. The focus on PowerShell, a Windows-centric tool, and the absence of Linux shell or scripting examples may make the documentation less approachable for Linux users.
Recommendations:
- Provide explicit Linux shell (bash) examples alongside PowerShell and Azure CLI, especially for common tasks such as authentication and data access.
- When listing command-line options, alternate the order or present Azure CLI (which is cross-platform) before PowerShell to avoid the appearance of Windows-first bias.
- Include a section or callout for Linux/macOS users, highlighting any differences or additional steps required.
- Where possible, link to or embed examples using native Linux tools (e.g., curl, wget) for REST API calls.
- Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and can be used on Windows, Linux, and macOS, to encourage non-Windows users.
