Chrome OS

Chrome OS is a Linux-based operating system developed by Google as a competitor to Windows from Microsoft, and iPadOS and macOS from Apple.

Description
Much of Chrome OS’s market share is from schools. However, many students prefer iPads, as they are recognized by kids who use them at home. Chrome OS is focused on the web and can run Android apps via the Google Play Store, as well as Linux apps, web apps, PWAs, and Chrome apps designed for its own platform. Chromebooks, Chromeboxes, Chromebases, and Chromebits run Chrome OS. Chromebooks are the competitor of MacBooks and iPads, Chromeboxes compete with the Mac mini, and Chromebases compete with the iMac. Chromebooks are considered to meed minimal requirements for casual users. High-end Chromebooks can run Windows software through Parallels.
