Is it possible to create a binary extension that can run on Chrome OS?

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6081865

Question

Chrome supports binary extensions on all platforms. But I cannot decide whether Chrome OS supports them too...

Was it helpful?

Solution

Nope, they are disabled on purpose.

See this, this, this.

OTHER TIPS

They don't support NPAPI, but they do support the new native client architecture NaCL.

For more information regarding the difference:

If your binary extension uses PPAPI rather than NPAPI, it will definitely work on Chrome OS.
