Bias Analysis
Bias Types:

missing_linux_example

windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively providing examples for creating a Windows virtual machine, omitting any Linux VM creation examples. Additionally, the PowerShell example is presented alongside Azure CLI, but there is no mention of Linux-specific tools or shell environments. The Azure CLI installation link defaults to the Windows tab, and the VM creation command uses a Windows image without showing how to use a Linux image.
Recommendations:
- Add a Linux virtual machine creation example using both Azure CLI and PowerShell, specifying a common Linux image (e.g., Ubuntu).
- Ensure the Azure CLI installation link is platform-neutral or includes Linux installation instructions prominently.
- Where PowerShell is mentioned, also reference Bash or other common Linux shells for parity.
- Explicitly state that the tutorial works for both Windows and Linux VMs, and provide guidance or examples for both.
- Include screenshots or portal instructions that show both Windows and Linux VM Automanage blades if there are differences.
