Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows-specific tools and workflows. Package installation instructions are given for the .NET Core CLI (cross-platform) and then for the Visual Studio Package Manager Console, which is Windows-only and uses PowerShell syntax. There are no explicit Linux or macOS-specific instructions, nor is there mention of Linux-native editors or workflows. The documentation assumes Visual Studio and Windows-centric tools as the default development environment.
Recommendations:
  • Add explicit instructions for Linux and macOS users, such as using VS Code or JetBrains Rider as alternatives to Visual Studio.
  • Clarify that the .NET Core CLI commands work on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and consider listing them first.
  • Provide terminal commands for installing packages using the .NET CLI as the primary method, and mention Visual Studio/PowerShell as an alternative.
  • Include notes about file paths and environment differences (e.g., appsettings.json location, directory separators) between Windows and Linux/macOS.
  • Avoid assuming Visual Studio as the default IDE; mention cross-platform editors and workflows.
  • Where UI navigation is described (e.g., in Azure portal), clarify that these steps are platform-agnostic.
