Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ powershell_heavy
Summary:
The documentation presents both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for deploying the ARM template, but PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is given equal prominence to Azure CLI, and is not clearly marked as Windows-only. There are no explicit Linux shell (bash) examples, and the PowerShell section may suggest a Windows-first or Windows-heavy approach. However, Azure CLI is cross-platform and is presented first, which helps mitigate bias.
Recommendations:
  • Clearly indicate that Azure PowerShell examples are primarily for Windows users, and that Azure CLI is recommended for cross-platform (Linux, macOS, Windows) environments.
  • Add explicit bash shell examples (if any commands differ from Azure CLI usage on Windows) to demonstrate Linux parity.
  • In prerequisite sections, clarify which tools are cross-platform and which are Windows-specific.
  • Consider providing a table or callout summarizing which deployment tools are best suited for each OS.
  • If possible, include links or references to Linux-specific guidance for ARM template deployment.
