Linux apps can expand your Chromebook's capabilities and open up all sorts of interesting options — but first, you have to know where to begin.
In this Linux tip, learn how to use the ls command. The ls command is one of the most basic commands. It’s used to list files and it has some very useful options.
In this Linux tip, learn how to use the ssh-keygen command. It’s used to create a set of public/private keys that you can use in place of passwords to either log into a system or run commands remotely.
