Summary
The documentation demonstrates a clear Windows bias: troubleshooting steps, examples, and tools are overwhelmingly Windows-centric. Windows tools (such as Group Policy Editor, Registry Editor, Task Manager, and Windows-specific command-line utilities like dsregcmd.exe and reg.exe) are referenced exclusively or before any alternatives. The only non-Windows example is a brief macOS command for TCP/UDP settings, with no mention of Linux clients or troubleshooting steps for Linux users. There are no Linux-specific instructions, tools, or parity in troubleshooting workflows.
Recommendations
- Add Linux client troubleshooting steps and examples, including how to connect to Dev Box from Linux (e.g., using open-source RDP clients like xfreerdp or Remmina).
- Provide Linux equivalents for registry and group policy changes, such as configuration file edits or command-line flags for Linux RDP clients.
- Include Linux-specific diagnostic commands and tools (e.g., checking network connectivity with ping, traceroute, or netstat).
- Mention Linux support explicitly in prerequisites and troubleshooting checklists, clarifying which steps apply to Linux and providing alternatives where necessary.
- Ensure all platform-specific instructions are grouped under clear tabs or sections (Windows, macOS, Linux) for parity and discoverability.
