I assume you have configured raspberry to start the desktop environment when at boot. Also, that this is on the internal lan only. You can run raspiconfig and enable vnc. Then from your laptop run a vnc client and connect to the server.
This is how I do it 👌 no need to install another when the pi already comes with one OOTB.
If OP is looking for VNC clients for zorin OS, there’s an app called “Connections” in the store which works great
