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 featured immediately after. There is no explicit mention of Linux or Bash shell usage, nor are there any Linux-specific considerations or examples. The documentation assumes parity between CLI and PowerShell, but the presence of PowerShell and lack of Linux/Bash examples may subtly bias toward Windows users.
Recommendations:
  • Explicitly mention that Azure CLI commands work cross-platform (Windows, Linux, macOS) and can be run in Bash or other shells.
  • Add a Bash-specific example or note for Linux/macOS users, clarifying any differences in file paths or environment setup.
  • If referencing PowerShell, clarify that PowerShell Core is available cross-platform, or provide a link to installation instructions for non-Windows systems.
  • Consider listing Azure CLI (which is cross-platform) before PowerShell, or making it the default example, to reduce Windows-first perception.
  • Add a short section or callout for Linux/macOS users to ensure inclusivity.
