Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. The only example for connecting to a VM uses PowerShell, with no mention of Linux/macOS terminals or their usage patterns. The instructions for using the SSH key after download are Windows-centric, and Linux/macOS users are not given explicit guidance or examples. References to further documentation also point to a page about connecting from Windows, reinforcing the bias.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux/macOS terminal examples for connecting to the VM using SSH, e.g., using the Terminal app or bash.
  • Include notes on file permissions for the downloaded .pem file (e.g., chmod 600 on Linux/macOS).
  • Provide parity in instructions for moving the .pem file on Linux/macOS systems.
  • Reference documentation for connecting from Linux/macOS, not just Windows.
  • When showing SSH commands, avoid specifying PowerShell unless necessary, or present both Windows and Linux/macOS options side by side.
