Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by providing several PowerShell-based command examples (marked as 'powershell-interactive'), using Windows-style variable assignment and scripting patterns, and referencing tools and workflows (such as Azure portal automation exports) that are more familiar to Windows users. Equivalent Linux/bash-native examples are missing or less prominent, and PowerShell is used even where bash would be more cross-platform appropriate. The documentation does not explicitly address Linux users or provide parity in scripting examples.
Recommendations:
  • For every PowerShell example, provide an equivalent bash shell example, especially for variable assignment and scripting blocks.
  • When referencing automation exports from the Azure portal, clarify which scripts are bash and which are PowerShell, and ensure both are available and referenced equally.
  • Avoid using PowerShell-specific syntax (e.g., $var=...) in generic command examples; prefer bash syntax or provide both.
  • Explicitly state that all commands work in both Windows and Linux environments, or note any differences.
  • Where possible, use Azure CLI commands in bash syntax as the primary example, as Azure CLI is cross-platform.
  • Add a section or callouts for Linux/macOS users to clarify any differences in procedure or tooling.
