Quick Steps to Install Minecraft on a Chromebook
First off, you might need to enable Linux on your Chromebook. Don’t worry; it’s not as scary as it sounds! Head over to your Chromebook’s settings and turn on the Linux (Beta) feature. This gives your Chromebook the power to run software like Minecraft.
Next, download the Minecraft.deb file from the official Minecraft website. Once it’s downloaded, open the Terminal in your Linux folder and type in a command to install Minecraft. It’s like telling your Chromebook a secret code to bring Minecraft to life!
