Summary
The documentation exhibits a Windows bias by frequently referencing Windows tools, workflows, and terminology before or instead of Linux equivalents. For example, browser support is described in terms of Windows and Mac, with no mention of Linux. Keyboard layout instructions are provided only for Windows, and RDP (a Windows protocol) is discussed in detail, while SSH (commonly used on Linux) receives less focus. There are no examples or instructions tailored for Linux users, such as how to set keyboard layouts or use native SSH clients on Linux.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux-specific instructions and examples where relevant, such as how to set keyboard layouts on popular Linux distributions.
  • When discussing browser support, explicitly mention Linux and supported browsers on that platform.
  • Provide parity in native client connection instructions, including examples for both RDP (Windows) and SSH (Linux/macOS).
  • Avoid assuming the user is on Windows; use platform-neutral language or provide parallel instructions for Windows, Linux, and macOS.
  • When referencing Microsoft Entra authentication, include links or notes for Linux VM scenarios, not just Windows.
  • Where possible, balance the discussion of RDP (Windows) and SSH (Linux/macOS) to reflect cross-platform usage.
