Summary
The documentation is heavily Windows-centric, with most troubleshooting steps, tools, and examples tailored for Windows environments. Windows-specific tools (e.g., Windows App, Group Policy Editor, Registry Editor, dsregcmd.exe) are referenced exclusively or before alternatives. Mac is mentioned only in one section, and Linux is not addressed at all, leaving Linux users without guidance for connectivity troubleshooting.
Recommendations
- Add explicit troubleshooting steps and examples for Linux clients, including how to connect to Dev Box from Linux (e.g., using RDP clients like Remmina, FreeRDP, or xfreerdp).
- Provide Linux equivalents for registry and group policy changes, such as configuration file edits or command-line flags for RDP clients.
- Include Linux-specific authentication troubleshooting steps, such as checking Entra ID join status or token refresh procedures.
- Mention and link to cross-platform remote desktop tools and clarify which features are available on each OS.
- Present examples for all platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux) side-by-side, rather than Windows-first.
