Bias Analysis

missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation contains a subtle Windows bias, primarily in the use of the 'osPlatform' property set to 'Windows' in several JSON examples (e.g., credentials, user name, VM size selectors), and the absence of equivalent Linux or cross-platform examples. There are no explicit Linux examples or mentions of Linux-specific patterns, and the documentation does not clarify cross-platform support or differences. No PowerShell or Windows command-line examples are present, but the repeated use of Windows as the default or sole platform in UI control examples suggests a Windows-first perspective.
Recommendations:
- Include examples where 'osPlatform' is set to 'Linux' or provide dual examples for both Windows and Linux where relevant (e.g., credentials, VM size selectors, user name controls).
- Clarify in the documentation whether the controls and patterns shown are applicable to both Windows and Linux, or specify any differences in behavior or requirements.
- Add a section or note discussing cross-platform considerations, especially for managed applications that may target Linux VMs.
- Ensure that any platform-specific properties or behaviors are documented for both Windows and Linux, and provide guidance for users deploying to Linux environments.
