Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation exclusively provides examples using Windows-centric paths (e.g., C:\Workspaces), Windows images (e.g., microsoftwindowsdesktop_windows-ent-cpc_win11-24H2-ent-cpc), and PowerShell tasks. There are no examples or guidance for Linux-based Dev Boxes, Linux file paths, or Linux shell commands, which may disadvantage users working in Linux environments.
Recommendations:
  • Add parallel examples using Linux-based images (e.g., Ubuntu) in the YAML samples.
  • Include Linux file paths (e.g., /home/dev/Workspaces) alongside Windows paths in examples.
  • Demonstrate use of Linux shell commands (e.g., bash) in addition to PowerShell tasks.
  • Explicitly mention support for both Windows and Linux Dev Boxes, if applicable, and clarify any limitations.
  • Ensure that any tooling or workflow described (such as cloning repositories) is shown in a cross-platform manner.
