ChromeOS, sometimes styled as chromeOS and formerly styled as Chrome OS, is a Linux distribution developed and designed by Google.[8] It is derived from the open-source ChromiumOS operating system and uses the Google Chrome web browser as its principal user interface.
Google announced the project in July 2009, initially describing it as an operating system where applications and user data would reside in the cloud. ChromeOS was used primarily to run web applications.[9]
ChromeOS supports progressive web applications, Android apps from Google Play and Linux applications.[10][11]
