Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI as the primary authentication methods, listing Azure PowerShell before other options, and not providing any Linux- or macOS-specific guidance or examples. There are no examples or notes about using Bicep or related tools on Linux, nor is there mention of cross-platform differences or considerations.
Recommendations:
  • Include explicit examples and notes for Linux and macOS users, such as how to authenticate using Azure CLI on those platforms.
  • Avoid listing Azure PowerShell before Azure CLI or at least clarify that both are cross-platform, but PowerShell is more Windows-centric.
  • Mention that Azure CLI is fully supported on Linux and macOS, and provide links or notes for installing and using it on those systems.
  • Add a section or callout about cross-platform compatibility, especially for authentication and environment setup.
  • Where credential types are listed, clarify which are available or recommended for Linux/macOS users (e.g., Azure CLI, Environment, Managed Identity).
