Summary
The documentation exhibits a mild Windows bias. While it mentions both Windows and Linux VMs in prerequisites, Windows is consistently listed first (e.g., port 3389 before 22, 'Quickstart: Create a Windows VM' before Linux). Keyboard shortcut examples are only provided for Windows VMs, with no equivalent guidance for Linux desktop environments. There are no Linux-specific connection or troubleshooting examples, and the only keyboard shortcuts discussed are for Windows. There is also an implicit assumption of familiarity with Windows tools and patterns.
Recommendations
  • Alternate the order of Windows and Linux references (e.g., sometimes list Linux first).
  • Provide Linux desktop environment shortcut examples (e.g., how to send Ctrl+Alt+Del or open a terminal in GNOME/KDE via Bastion).
  • Include screenshots or notes about connecting to Linux VMs and what users should expect (e.g., SSH session, desktop environment).
  • Add troubleshooting tips or notes for Linux users (e.g., handling clipboard, keyboard mapping issues in Linux sessions).
  • Ensure parity in example links and documentation coverage for both Windows and Linux VM scenarios.
