hello Isaac
so :
a) what sort of processor do you have ? an intel-something or an ARM ?
b) did you try to install VirtualBox ?
c) did you manage to install a "debian buster" (i dont know what it is) as a VM ?

Hi Vincent and Max,

Actually, the Chrome OS wikipedia page says it's possible to run Linux apps in
recent Chromebooks. Apparently, this is acheived by running a VM with debian
Buster inside. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrome_OS#Linux_apps

So, if the machine has an intel-compatible cpu there is a good chance that the
appimage would work in that VM. If it's an arm cpu, one would need to compile
TeXmacs; it's not for beginners, but it should work

Hello! I'm currently trying to download TeXmacs, following the recommendation of my math teacher. However, I'm not exactly the most tech-savy person out there, would any of you be able to help? The only computer I have for this is a Chromebook Asus c202s. Will I be able to Download it? If so, is the downloading procedure any different? Thanks.
