Summary
The documentation is heavily Windows-centric, with troubleshooting steps, tools, and examples almost exclusively focused on Windows environments. Windows-specific tools (such as the Windows App, Group Policy Editor, Registry Editor, and Windows command-line utilities) are referenced throughout, often without Linux equivalents or alternatives. Mac is mentioned briefly in one section, but Linux is not addressed at all, leaving Linux users without guidance for critical troubleshooting steps.
Recommendations
- Add explicit troubleshooting steps and examples for Linux clients, including how to connect to dev boxes using supported Linux RDP clients (e.g., FreeRDP, Remmina) and how to adjust TCP/UDP settings.
- Provide Linux equivalents for Windows-specific tools and commands, such as alternatives to Group Policy Editor and Registry Editor for configuring remote desktop settings.
- Include Linux-specific troubleshooting checklists and guidance for common connectivity issues, such as dealing with network configuration, authentication, and remote desktop session management.
- Ensure parity in example ordering: present Windows, macOS, and Linux instructions side-by-side or in tabs, rather than Windows-first or Windows-only.
- Reference cross-platform remote desktop clients and provide links to their documentation.
