Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation consistently references Microsoft SQL Server and its client libraries (e.g., Microsoft.Data.SqlClient, mssql-jdbc, ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server), which are Windows-centric or Microsoft-specific. The Python example assumes the presence of 'ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server', which is not always available or straightforward to install on Linux. There are no explicit Linux-specific instructions, troubleshooting, or alternative driver suggestions. No PowerShell or cmd.exe examples are present, but the documentation implicitly assumes a Windows/Microsoft ecosystem.
Recommendations:
  • Add explicit instructions for installing ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server on Linux and macOS, or mention compatible open-source alternatives (e.g., FreeTDS).
  • Include troubleshooting notes for common Linux issues (e.g., driver installation, environment variable differences).
  • Provide example connection strings or code snippets that work on Linux, including any required driver or authentication configuration differences.
  • Clarify cross-platform compatibility of all client libraries and tools mentioned.
  • Where possible, mention or link to documentation for non-Windows environments.
