In some versions of Chromebook , all of the year 2019 for here and before 2019 some models, integrate a function called Linux (Beta). Linux (Beta) is a function with which it is possible to develop software through Chromebook, there it is possible to install all the necessary tools from the command line, the IDEs and the Linux code editors , this gives us the opportunity to write code, create apps and much more, it integrates the Debian distribution for its development.
