SpiderBasic IDE on Chromebooks
Posted: Sat Feb 23, 2019 3:11 pm
I decided to upgrade to an CB515-1HT Chromebook to (aside from bigger display for my aging eyes) to run SpiderBasic on ChromeOS.
Not every Chromebook allows setting up Linux (Beta) for installation and running of Linux apps. So desire to run SpiderBasic on Chromebook finally triggered the new purchase (my C720P Chromebook is too old for setting up installation of Linux apps.)
Although not necessarily for the faint at heart (i.e. not for your typical Chromebook owner), I know just enough about Linux to get this working.
If anybody else is interested in how all of this works, please check out the screenshot link below. If you have any questions, please ask away and I'll answer the best I can !
