Summary
The documentation page focuses exclusively on using the Microsoft Remote Desktop app for connecting to lab VMs from a Chromebook, with all instructions and screenshots centered around this Windows-centric tool. While it briefly mentions alternatives like Chrome Remote Desktop, these are discouraged and not documented. The process for connecting to Linux VMs is only covered via RDP, with no Linux-native client recommendations or examples. The documentation assumes the use of Microsoft tools and patterns, which may not be optimal or preferred for Linux VM users.
Recommendations
- Provide step-by-step instructions for connecting to Linux VMs using SSH, which is a native and preferred method for Linux systems.
- Include examples and screenshots for alternative RDP clients available on Chrome OS and Linux, such as Remmina or FreeRDP.
- Document the process for configuring and using Chrome Remote Desktop or other open-source remote desktop solutions, especially for Linux VMs.
- Clarify the limitations and requirements for using third-party clients, and provide guidance for lab administrators to support these options.
- Present Linux connection options (SSH, open-source RDP clients) before or alongside Microsoft Remote Desktop instructions to avoid Windows-first bias.
