  • vscodium

    binary releases of VS Code without MS branding/telemetry/licensing

  • For the VSCode i recommend VSCodium. It is a fork that disables Microsoft's telemetry by default, you can directly install through downloading .deb file. It works perfectly on Crostini(a.k.a. Linux Beta), i tested it myself.

  • chromebrew

    Discontinued Package manager for Chrome OS [Moved to: https://github.com/chromebrew/chromebrew] (by skycocker)

  • ChromeOS is a Gentoo derivative, and you can install build tools and treat it much like any other Linux - https://github.com/skycocker/chromebrew

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
