Here's a quick run down of how to get started. You can use to connect to a VM instance and use LXC to run containers. It will only run Termina at this point in time. You can launch crosh and use the vmc command to create new VMs manually. So Sommelier is also responsible for translating the X protocol inside the container into the Wayland protocol that Chrome can understand. Chrome does not run an X server or otherwise support the X protocol it only supports Wayland clients. between applications inside the container and Chrome. Sommelier provides seamless forwarding of contents, input events, clipboard data, etc. Sommelier is a Wayland proxy compositor that runs inside the container. For example, if the container wants to open a URL, Garcon takes care of plumbing that request back out. Garcon runs inside the container and provides integration with Concierge/Chrome for more convenient/natural behavior. Concierge sends it requests and Maitred is responsible for carrying those out.
Maitred is our init and service/container manager inside of the VM, and is responsible for communicating with concierge (which runs outside of the VM). In hindsight, we might not have named it one letter off from “Terminal”, but so it goes. Many of the programs/tools are custom here. Its only goal is to boot up as quickly as possible and start running containers. Termina is a VM image with a stripped-down Chrome OS linux kernel and userland tools. It takes care of kicking off everything else in the system that you’ll interact with.Ĭrosvm is a custom virtual machine monitor that takes care of managing KVM, the guest VM, and facilitating the low-level ( virtio-based) communication. The Terminal app is the first entry point to that environment. It largely focuses on getting you a Terminal with a container with easy access to installing whatever developer-focused tools you might want. There are many codenames and technologies involved in this project, so hopefully we can demystify things here.Ĭrostini is the umbrella term for making Linux application support easy to use and integrating well with Chrome OS.
#Chrome os linux android
If Android apps are in a container, why can't users run code too?.Don't Android apps (ARC++) run in a container and not a VM?.Why implement crosvm from scratch (instead of using QEMU/kvmtool/etc.)?.Can I develop Android apps (for ARC++)?.Are my VMs/containers/data synced/backed up?.Can I run programs that keep running after logout?.Can I run a container inside the container?.Can I access files when the container isn't running?.How do I share files between Chrome OS & the container?.Can I boot another OS like Windows, macOS, Linux, *BSD, etc.?.
