Bias Analysis
Bias Types:
⚠️
windows_first
⚠️
powershell_heavy
⚠️
windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. While the main certificate generation instructions use OpenSSL (cross-platform), Windows-specific tools and patterns are prioritized or highlighted in several places. The Azure PowerShell example is given in detail, with no equivalent Azure CLI (cross-platform) example. The IIS (Windows web server) configuration is presented before Apache and NGINX, and the file path in the PowerShell example uses a Windows-style path. There is also a reference to editing the hosts file with a link that is Windows-centric.
Recommendations:
- Add Azure CLI examples alongside or before Azure PowerShell for certificate upload and configuration, as CLI is cross-platform.
- Present Linux/Unix web server configuration examples (Apache, NGINX) before or alongside IIS, or clarify that order is not indicative of priority.
- Include Linux file path examples in addition to Windows paths in code samples.
- Provide explicit instructions or links for editing the hosts file on both Windows and Linux/macOS.
- Ensure that any references to tools or steps that are Windows-specific are matched with Linux/macOS equivalents where possible.
