Adds get-started pages for the three Securely access private web apps without an agent dashboard wizard flows (PCX-20919, PCX-20920, PCX-20922).

  • Index page with cards for all three flows: private web application, clientless SSH, in-browser remote desktop
  • Three get-started pages, each mirroring the 6-step dashboard wizard. Step 1 is flow-specific (different input fields per protocol). Steps 2–6 are identical across all three flows.
  • Shared partial (secure-private-apps-shared-steps.mdx) containing Steps 2–6, recommended next steps, and troubleshoot links to avoid content duplication across the three pages
  • Updated parent setup index card to point to the new section

Applied an ELI5 (plain language clarity) pass across all content to ensure the pages are accessible to non-technical users unfamiliar with Cloudflare-specific terminology.

Add get-started pages for the three 'Securely access private web apps
without an agent' dashboard wizard flows:

- Private web application (6-step wizard)
- Clientless SSH (6-step wizard)
- In-browser remote desktop (6-step wizard)

Steps 2-6, recommended next steps, and troubleshoot are identical
across all three flows and extracted into a shared partial. Each page
has a flow-specific Step 1 (different input fields per protocol).

Also adds the navigation index page with cards for all three flows,
and updates the parent setup index to point to the new section.

Should we link users to the full browser-based RDP guide? There are many limitations and compatibility issues to be aware of: https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/networks/connectors/cloudflare-tunnel/use-cases/rdp/rdp-browser/

Good call. Adding a link to the full browser-based RDP guide. Also adding the equivalent link to the clientless SSH page for the browser-rendered SSH guide. These give users visibility into limitations and advanced configuration options.

Link to the detailed browser-based RDP and SSH guides from the
How it works sections. These cover limitations, supported OS
versions, and advanced configuration that the get-started pages
do not.
