Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types

Summary
The documentation provides only C# code samples and file storage patterns that implicitly assume a Windows or .NET environment, with no mention of Linux-specific considerations, tools, or code examples. There are no references to Linux shell commands, Linux file paths, or cross-platform SDK usage. The use of .NET APIs for file access and environment variables is not explained for Linux users, and there is no guidance on adapting the examples for Linux-based IoT devices.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent code samples in a cross-platform language such as Python or C, or explicitly show how the C#/.NET code can be run on Linux (e.g., using .NET Core on Linux).
  • Include Linux-specific instructions for setting environment variables and file paths (e.g., using $HOME or /var/lib for data directories).
  • Mention and demonstrate how to run the provided code on both Windows and Linux, including any prerequisites (such as installing .NET on Linux).
  • Add shell script (Bash) examples for provisioning and monitoring tasks where appropriate.
  • Clarify that the patterns and APIs used are cross-platform, or provide alternatives for Linux-only environments.
  • Reference Linux-native tools (such as systemd for background work, or Linux logging mechanisms) where relevant.
