Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_first
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by requiring Azure PowerShell, referencing Windows file paths (e.g., C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc), and providing instructions only for Windows environments (such as editing the Windows hosts file). There are no examples or guidance for performing equivalent steps on Linux-based VMs, nor are cross-platform tools or commands (like Azure CLI or Linux file paths) mentioned. This could hinder users working in Linux environments or those preferring non-Windows tooling.
Recommendations:
  • Provide equivalent instructions for Linux-based VMs, such as how to edit /etc/hosts for DNS resolution.
  • Include Azure CLI commands as alternatives to Azure PowerShell for all steps, or clarify which steps are cross-platform.
  • Explicitly mention that the self-hosted integration runtime can be installed on both Windows and Linux VMs, and provide installation steps for both.
  • When referencing file paths or system modifications (like editing hosts files), show both Windows and Linux syntax.
  • Review all screenshots and UI references to ensure they are not exclusively Windows-centric, or add Linux equivalents where possible.
