Bias Analysis
Bias Types:
⚠️
windows_first
⚠️
windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation provides deployment examples for multiple platforms and languages. However, for the ASP.NET (classic) tab, the example exclusively uses a Windows runner (runs-on: windows-latest) and Windows-specific tools (NuGet, MSBuild with Windows path syntax), without offering a Linux-based alternative. In contrast, all other language tabs (including ASP.NET Core) use Ubuntu runners and cross-platform tooling. The ASP.NET example is also presented before the Java, Node.js, and Python examples, reinforcing a 'windows_first' bias for .NET technologies.
Recommendations:
- Provide a Linux-based example for ASP.NET (classic) using Mono or .NET Core-compatible tooling if possible, or clarify that Windows is required and explain why.
- If Windows is required for ASP.NET (classic), explicitly state this in the documentation to avoid confusion.
- Consider reordering or grouping examples so that Windows-specific instructions do not appear to be the default or primary approach.
- Where possible, mention cross-platform alternatives to Windows tools (e.g., dotnet CLI instead of MSBuild/NuGet) or explain the platform limitations.
- Ensure parity in detail and clarity across all language/platform tabs, so Linux users do not feel secondary.
