Crouton</a>, a third-party set of scripts that allows access to a Linux distribution such as Ubuntu.<sup><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrome_OS#cite_note-84">[84]</a></sup> However, in 2018 Google announced that desktop Linux apps were officially
coming to Chrome OS.<sup><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrome_OS#cite_note-85">[85]</a></sup> The main benefit claimed by Google of their official Linux application support is that it can run without enabling developer mode, keeping many of the security
features of Chrome OS. It was noticed in the Chromium OS source code in early 2018.<sup><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrome_OS#cite_note-86">[86]</a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrome_OS#cite_note-87">[87]</a></sup> Early parts of Crostini
were made available for the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Pixelbook" title="Google Pixelbook">

by default via the beta channel for testing on a variety of chromebooks in August 2018 with version 69.<sup><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrome_OS#cite_note-90">[90]</a></sup>
