Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing extensive PowerShell examples and cmdlet references, mentioning PowerShell tools and patterns before Azure CLI equivalents, and omitting explicit Linux/bash examples. The CLI section is less detailed, and there are no bash or cross-platform shell examples, which may disadvantage Linux or macOS users.
Recommendations:
  • Provide parallel bash/Azure CLI examples for all PowerShell commands, especially for tasks like obtaining ObjectId and deploying templates.
  • List Azure CLI instructions before or alongside PowerShell instructions to avoid a 'Windows-first' impression.
  • Include references to cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, REST API, or bash scripting) wherever PowerShell cmdlets are mentioned.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI and ARM templates are fully supported on Linux/macOS and provide explicit instructions for those platforms.
  • Expand the Azure CLI section to match the detail and guidance given in the PowerShell section, including parameter explanations and example outputs.
  • Where GUID generation is needed, show how to generate GUIDs using Linux tools (e.g., uuidgen) in addition to PowerShell's New-Guid.
