Chrome Remote DesktopĬhrome Remote Desktop allows you to remotely access your Mac, Windows, or Linux computer from your ChromeOS device. Once the extension is installed, you can open it by searching for “Secure Shell App” in your launcher. Google also offers a Secure Shell Chrome extension that provides SSH and SFTP support. With Linux available in ChromeOS, you have access to a large selection of Linux tools for working with SSH. Secure Shell connections, SSH for short, is a common secure protocol used for accessing devices over a network. While you can search for apps in the Google Play Store to do this, there are a number of ChromeOS and Google provided ways of doing so, too.

Often while developing you’ll need to access remote computers to perform tasks, like fixing something on a server or accessing files on an office desktop.
