Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by providing detailed PowerShell examples and instructions before Azure CLI, referencing PowerShell modules and commands prominently, and linking to Windows-specific managed identity tutorials. There is no mention of Linux-specific shell usage, nor are there Bash or cross-platform scripting examples. The prerequisite tutorial link is Windows VM-specific, and PowerShell is presented as the primary scripting interface.
Recommendations
  • Provide Bash and cross-platform shell examples alongside PowerShell, especially for Azure CLI usage.
  • Reference Linux and macOS environments explicitly, including links to managed identity tutorials for Linux VMs.
  • Avoid presenting PowerShell examples before CLI or REST unless usage data shows a clear majority of users on Windows.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands work on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and provide any necessary OS-specific notes.
  • Balance tool references by including both Windows and Linux equivalents where relevant (e.g., for identity creation or key management).
