Bias Analysis
Bias Types:
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a 'windows_first' bias in the section on setting environment variables, where Windows PowerShell syntax is presented before the Bash/Linux equivalent. However, the remainder of the documentation uses cross-platform Azure CLI and Bash commands, and does not otherwise prioritize or exclusively reference Windows tools or patterns.
Recommendations:
- Present Linux/Bash environment variable examples before or alongside Windows PowerShell examples, as Linux is the primary platform for containerized workloads.
- Explicitly state that all CLI commands are cross-platform and can be run on Linux, macOS, or Windows (with WSL or native Bash).
- Wherever platform-specific instructions are needed, provide both Windows and Linux/macOS variants in parallel, or link to platform-specific setup guides.
- Consider removing the PowerShell example unless there is a clear user need, or move it to an appendix or a 'Windows users' note.
