Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows environments, with all configuration steps, compatibility notes, and troubleshooting focused exclusively on Windows OS and tooling. There are no references to Linux or cross-platform scenarios, and all examples (including UI steps and CLI flags) assume Windows-based images and features. Linux users or those interested in non-Windows dev boxes are not addressed.
Recommendations:
  • Explicitly state whether hibernation is supported or not for Linux-based dev boxes, and provide parity guidance if/when it is.
  • If Linux support exists, add equivalent Linux image configuration steps (e.g., for Ubuntu or other supported distros), including CLI flags and any required OS settings.
  • Include troubleshooting steps and compatibility notes for Linux images, or clarify if only Windows images are supported.
  • Where possible, use neutral language (e.g., 'your OS' or 'the guest OS') and provide both Windows and Linux UI/CLI examples.
  • If hibernation is a Windows-only feature, clearly state this at the top of the documentation to set expectations for cross-platform users.
