Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types

Summary
The documentation generally provides cross-platform instructions, but there is a subtle Windows bias in the Python section where Windows command examples are presented before Linux ones, and in some places, Linux-specific instructions are less prominent or missing. There are no PowerShell-heavy examples or exclusive use of Windows tools, but the ordering and occasional lack of explicit Linux parity can create a perception of Windows-first orientation.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux and Windows examples side-by-side or in a consistent order (e.g., Linux first, then Windows, or vice versa, but be consistent across all language pivots).
  • Where platform-specific commands are needed, ensure both Windows and Linux/macOS variants are always shown, not just for Python but for all languages.
  • Consider using platform-agnostic commands (e.g., 'python3' instead of 'python' where possible) or provide a note explaining differences.
  • Explicitly mention that all CLI commands (e.g., Dapr, azd, git) work on both Windows and Linux/macOS, and link to cross-platform installation guides.
  • Audit other language pivots (Node.js, C#) to ensure that if there are any platform-specific nuances, they are equally documented for both Windows and Linux.
