Summary
The documentation page shows a Windows bias by exclusively recommending the 'Windows App' (a Microsoft tool) for RDP connections from Mac, without mentioning alternative RDP clients commonly used on Mac or Linux. The instructions focus on connecting to Windows VMs, with Linux VM connection options (SSH, RDP) mentioned only in passing and without detailed guidance. There are no examples or recommendations for using open-source or cross-platform RDP clients, and Linux tools/patterns are absent from the main workflow.
Recommendations
- Include instructions for using popular cross-platform RDP clients on Mac, such as Microsoft Remote Desktop, FreeRDP, or Royal TSX.
- Provide parity by showing how to connect to both Windows and Linux VMs, including SSH and RDP workflows for Linux VMs.
- Mention open-source alternatives to 'Windows App' and explain their installation and usage.
- Reorder content to present cross-platform solutions first, or in parallel, rather than focusing on Microsoft-branded tools.
- Add troubleshooting tips relevant to Linux VMs and non-Windows RDP clients.
