Bias Analysis

missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively using Windows Server as the backend VM example and providing only Azure PowerShell commands (with Windows-specific IIS installation) for backend setup and testing. There are no Linux-based backend examples, nor are there Bash/CLI or Linux-native instructions for deploying or testing the backend. This may hinder users who prefer or require Linux environments.
Recommendations:
- Include parallel instructions for creating a Linux VM (e.g., Ubuntu) as a backend target, alongside the Windows Server example.
- Provide Azure CLI (Bash) commands for installing a simple web server (such as nginx or Apache) on a Linux VM for testing, in addition to the PowerShell/IIS example.
- Explicitly mention that both Windows and Linux VMs are supported as backend targets, and link to relevant documentation for both.
- Where scripting is required, offer both PowerShell and Bash/CLI examples, or reference cross-platform scripts.
- Ensure that screenshots and walkthroughs do not assume a Windows-only environment, and clarify any OS-specific steps.
