Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. Troubleshooting steps, examples, and tools are almost exclusively Windows-centric, with frequent references to Windows-specific utilities (e.g., gpedit.msc, Registry Editor, dsregcmd.exe, reg.exe, Task Manager). The Windows App is presented as the primary connection method, and Windows solutions are listed before alternatives. There is a lack of Linux-specific guidance, examples, or parity in troubleshooting steps, despite the mention of a Mac client in one section.
Recommendations
- Add troubleshooting steps and examples for Linux client devices, including remote desktop connection configuration and relevant tools.
- Include Linux equivalents for registry and group policy changes, such as modifying configuration files or using dconf/gsettings where applicable.
- Provide Linux-specific commands for checking connectivity, authentication, and remote desktop session status (e.g., using xfreerdp, rdesktop, or Remmina).
- Mention and link to Linux-compatible remote desktop clients and describe how to connect to Dev Box from Linux.
- Ensure that troubleshooting checklists and quick workarounds are not Windows-exclusive and address cross-platform scenarios.
- Present platform-specific instructions in parallel tabs or sections (Windows, Mac, Linux) for each troubleshooting step.
