people have done it. I was able to set intellij up without any issues. Typical Linux apps run fast, intellij/Java is very slow due to lack of GPU acceleration



ChromeOS is less restrictive than I once thought with android container + crostini VM support (which were introduced in 2016 and mid-2018 respectively).

UI and workflow integration definitely exceeds my expectations (android->chromeos and linux -> chromeos)

crostini VM (kvm) - content with the performance so far (hey, my device has a quad cherry trail intel Atom with mmc drive), very happy them using lxc containers

still have some issues before i'm totally happy. will likely get the one mix 3 yoga when it comes out and load it with chromeos
- no GPU acceleration, should come in March 2019
- no sound/usb support (not dealbreaker for me)
- not quite sure how updates to ChromeOS AND chromiumOS works, need to test it out

You can probably run crouton(no VM) instead of crostini(VM) to get beter native performance, but no OS/UI integration
