Google today announced Chrome OS is getting Linux support. As a result, Chromebooks will soon be able to run Linux apps and execute Linux commands. A preview of Linux on the Pixelbook will be released first, with support for more devices coming soon.

One of Google’s goals this year is to make it possible for developers to code on Chromebooks. Want Chrome OS to run the Linux terminal, Android Studio, Git, Sublime, Vim, or Android Studio? All of that will be possible this year. “Just go to wherever you normally get those apps, whether it’s on the websites or through apt-get in the Linux terminal, and seamless get those apps like any other Linux distribution,” Chrome OS director of product management Kan Liu told VentureBeat.

(Separately, Google also announced Android Studio for Chrome OS. The company has it already working internally and a preview is coming later this year.)

Sweet!  Earlier this year I purchased an Asus Chromebook for travel was delighted with it.  It looks and feels like a macbook knock off but it did everything I needed on the road. I used it mostly for checking email, websites, documents, movies and ssh.  I was really happy with the purchase and would highly recommend it for anyone that wants a light weight travel notebook/tablet.  I'm really happy to learn that my purchase just got better in the ways I can use it.  I will definitely the linux terminal and ssh over the Android app solution currently installed.
