Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All command-line examples are shown using PowerShell syntax, and there are no bash or Linux shell equivalents. Windows-specific tools and patterns (such as Connect-AzAccount, Set-AzContext, and New-AzResourceGroupDeployment) are used exclusively, and there is no mention of how to perform these tasks on Linux or macOS. The only explicit OS note is a warning that JavaScript UDFs only work on Windows, but no guidance is given for Linux users. This may make it difficult for users on non-Windows platforms to follow the documentation or understand how to adapt the instructions.
Recommendations:
  • Provide all CLI examples in both PowerShell and bash (Linux/macOS) syntax, or use a neutral shell syntax where possible.
  • Include instructions for installing and using the Azure CLI (az) as an alternative to Azure PowerShell, especially for deployment steps.
  • Explicitly mention OS compatibility for all commands and features, and provide alternatives or workarounds for Linux/macOS users.
  • Add a section or callouts for Linux/macOS users, highlighting any differences or limitations.
  • Avoid using Windows-specific path separators (\) in examples, or show both Windows and Linux/macOS path formats.
