Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation references 'Azure CLI or Azure PowerShell' as the means to run examples, listing Azure PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) alongside Azure CLI, and links to a Visual Studio Code quickstart for deployment. While Azure CLI is cross-platform, the mention of Azure PowerShell and Visual Studio Code (which is cross-platform but often associated with Windows) before any explicit mention of Linux-native workflows or tools may suggest a subtle Windows-first bias. However, the Bicep code examples themselves are platform-agnostic, and there are no explicit PowerShell scripts, Windows-only tools, or missing Linux examples.
Recommendations
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is fully cross-platform and can be used on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • If mentioning Azure PowerShell, also mention that it is available cross-platform, or provide a Linux-native alternative (such as Bash scripts using Azure CLI).
  • Consider providing explicit example commands for deploying Bicep files using Azure CLI on Linux (e.g., Bash shell), not just referencing the Visual Studio Code workflow.
  • Add a note or section on running Bicep deployments from Linux environments, possibly linking to relevant documentation.
  • Ensure that any future examples or tooling references are balanced between Windows and Linux workflows.
