- shubb 2y agoOriginally you say it was a kind of kiosk operating system that ran a Web browser with Google apps deeply integrated to enable things like a little local file storage. Some years ago, they enabled you to access a real local Linux operating system, and install and run arbitrary things. I think but don't know that local Linux gives me a container or windows subsystem for Linux vibe. It's sufficient to use a chrome book as a local dev machine, and I think googlers do that daily.
