Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by centering the workflow around PowerShell (with all commands and examples in PowerShell syntax), presenting Windows Remote Desktop as the primary method for connecting to the VM (with more detailed steps and configuration), and only briefly mentioning the Linux alternative (FreeRDP) with minimal instruction. There is also a lack of Linux-native command-line examples for connecting to the VM, and the documentation assumes familiarity with Windows tools and patterns.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux shell (bash) command examples for connecting to the PowerShell interface and managing VM console access, if supported.
  • Expand the FreeRDP section to include step-by-step instructions comparable to the Windows Remote Desktop section, including how to install FreeRDP on common Linux distributions and how to create/use RDP profiles.
  • List Linux and macOS remote desktop clients before or alongside Windows Remote Desktop, and provide parity in detail for each.
  • Clarify any platform-specific differences or prerequisites, such as authentication or client capabilities, for Linux and macOS users.
  • Consider including screenshots or walkthroughs for Linux/macOS clients, not just Windows.
