Perhaps you've grown tired of the freedom and ease of use of linux and want a worse operating system.\nPerhaps you want to do development for chromeOS tools and for some reason don't want to use a vm or a real machine.\nMaybe you just want to fuck around and have fun. Either way, crumpet is for you!\n\n## Usage\ncrumpet is not a very powerful tool, and there are not a lot of features, but basic usage is somewhat complicated and annoying by ~~design~~ laziness\n\n\nFirst, install it obviously\n```\ngit clone https://github.com/CoolElectronics/crumpet\ncd crumpet\nsudo ./crumpet install\n```\n\nHere's all the commands:\n```\nUsage: sudo ./crumpet [command]\n\nactivate - activates the environment. usually you want to run this before you run some of the other commands\nstartui - launches and switches to the chromiumos UI\nenter-chroot - gives you a shell inside the chroot\ninside - runs a single command inside the chroot (as root)\ninside_chronos - runs a single command inside the chroot (as chronos)\n```\n\n\n\n### Tips\nOnce the UI is launched, you can switch between your normal desktop and chromiumos with CTRL+ALT+1-9\n\nIf this accidentally breaks your DE, sorry about that, `rm ~/.Xauthority` should fix it\n\nIf this accidentally breaks your terminal, sorry about that, `sudo mount -t devpts devpts /dev/pts` or rebooting should fix it\n\n### How does it work?\nI shouldn't need to explain the chroot part, it's just a standard chromiumos devimage build.\nThe UI itself is built from ash-on-linux. DRI ended up being difficult inside a chroot so I fell back to a boring xorg kiosk for containing the UI. (see scripts/kiosk.sh)\n\n\n### Why does this download a random tarball from a sketchy site? I want to build it myself!\nsee [HACKING.md](./HACKING.md) at your own risk\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fvelzie%2Fcrumpet","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fvelzie%2Fcrumpet","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fvelzie%2Fcrumpet/lists"}
