Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows-specific tools and instructions. For example, automatic shutdown is described as a Windows VM feature, and the Microsoft Remote Desktop client is recommended for connecting to Windows VMs, with Linux connection options mentioned only afterward. There are references to setting up OneDrive and Microsoft Office specifically for Windows template VMs, but no equivalent guidance for Linux VMs. Linux connection methods (SSH/RDP) are mentioned, but there are no detailed Linux setup examples or parity in tooling recommendations.
Recommendations
  • Provide step-by-step examples for both Windows and Linux VM setup, including configuring automatic shutdown and external storage options.
  • Include Linux-specific instructions for connecting to VMs (e.g., using SSH clients, configuring RDP and GUI packages on Linux).
  • Offer guidance for setting up popular Linux equivalents to OneDrive (e.g., Nextcloud, Dropbox, or mounting network shares) and productivity suites (e.g., LibreOffice).
  • Ensure that references to tools and connection methods are presented in a platform-neutral order, or grouped by OS, rather than Windows-first.
  • Add links to Linux documentation and troubleshooting resources alongside Windows references.
