Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
windows_first
powershell_heavy
missing_linux_example
Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows-first bias by providing a PowerShell (az CLI) example for deploying the ARM template but omitting equivalent Linux/macOS shell (bash) examples. The only command-line deployment example is shown using PowerShell syntax, and there is no mention of Linux or cross-platform CLI usage, nor are there instructions for using bash or other common Linux tools. The Azure portal is referenced, which is cross-platform, but the CLI example is Windows-centric.
Recommendations
  • Provide both PowerShell and bash (Linux/macOS) examples for CLI commands, especially for az deployment group create.
  • Explicitly mention that the Azure CLI can be used on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and show syntax for both environments where it differs.
  • Consider using neutral CLI syntax (e.g., $HOME or ~ for home directory, forward slashes in paths) or clarify any OS-specific differences.
  • Add a note or section for Linux/macOS users, ensuring parity in instructions and examples.
  • Where possible, use 'az' CLI commands in a way that is copy-paste friendly for all platforms.
