ChromeOS Linux Application Distribution (Linux App Stores)

The ChromeOS Linux Environment supports multiple application distribution systems, including the widely used apt package manager, as well as third-party repositories. Users are also free to install or use any other application distribution system that they wish. This section will cover some of the popular application distribution systems that will work with your ChromeOS device. 

It is important to note that installing third-party software can come with some inherent security risks, and users should always ensure that they are obtaining software from reputable sources and not falling for malicious "look-alike" versions of popular software. The packages referenced on this website have all been vetted to ensure that they are genuine releases; however, users should always verify.
