Summary
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias. In the prerequisites, the link to the Windows VM quickstart is listed before the Linux VM quickstart. In the required inbound ports section, the Windows port (3389) is listed before the Linux port (22). In the 'Connect to a VM' section, keyboard shortcut examples are provided only for connecting to Windows VMs, with no equivalent Linux examples or discussion of Linux-specific connection nuances. There are no explicit Linux command-line or SSH examples, and the only OS-specific details are for Windows.
Recommendations
  • Alternate the order of Windows and Linux references throughout the documentation, or list Linux first in some sections to balance representation.
  • In the 'Connect to a VM' section, provide examples or notes for connecting to Linux VMs, such as SSH session behaviors, keyboard shortcuts, or clipboard usage.
  • Include Linux-specific tips or troubleshooting steps, especially for users connecting from Linux or Mac clients.
  • Ensure parity in all examples and explanations, such as providing both RDP (Windows) and SSH (Linux) connection walkthroughs.
  • Where keyboard shortcuts are discussed for Windows, add equivalent information for Linux VMs (e.g., how to send signals like Ctrl+Alt+Del to a Linux VM, if relevant).
