Termux is also great on Chromebooks. I use it a lot, it reminds me of Cygwin, i.e. not really Linux but 90% of what most Linux users would use routinely.

Chromebooks with recent(ish) kernels now support honest-to-goodness (virtualized) Linux[1]. It doesn't even need to be a high-end Chromebook - Linux runs well on a 2GB Samsung Chromebook 3 which was going for $100 over the holidays.
