A set of board overlays and build recipes for compiling vanilla Chromium OS for Raspberry Pi 3, 4B, Pi 400, and Pi 5. It is maintained by FydeOS and produces bootable disk images of the open-source Chromium OS ported to Raspberry Pi hardware.

Use cases

  • build chromium os for raspberry pi 5
  • create a bootable chrome os-like image for pi 400
  • port chromium os to a single-board computer
  • customize chromium os board overlay for raspberry pi
  • run an open-source chrome os alternative on raspberry pi

When to choose

  • you want vanilla Chromium OS, not FydeOS or openFyde, on a Raspberry Pi 3/4/5
  • you need to build and customize the OS from source with your own overlays
  • you are comfortable with lengthy Chromium OS build tooling (cros_sdk, emerge)

When to avoid

  • you want a consumer-ready OS with Android app support or auto-updates
  • you want the commercial FydeOS for You product rather than a build-it-yourself project
  • you need support for non-Raspberry Pi hardware
