Suppose I have a c++ file I want to compile. I've assumed you couldn't do that on a chromebook directly, but would need to open a terminal on some system that does run a compiler. So does developing on a chromebook require that you also have an account on some remote computer and you're using the chromebook in various ways to remote to that other development system? I.E. does most of your chromebook development come down to using it as a smart terminal?

I describe switching to dev mode and using crouton for this in my post. does most of your chromebook development come down to using it as a smart terminal That said, yes; I normally remote into beefy servers on campus. I may find myself doing more local work once I graduate, however.
