Section 1: Find the Chrome download page
As you can see, Google Chrome is available in multiple platforms, including Mac OS, Windows and Linux. This guide is based on Mac OS. The Windows option is also available but does not offer the most up-to-date version of the browser.
So let’s get started with the setup. Simply download the folder. Open a Terminal and execute the following command to launch the Chrome installation.
echo “Chrome is version 30.0.2403.73” | bc
or simply install Chrome in the following manner:
sudo bc -i ~/Downloads/chrome_installer_macosx.bundle.pkg
The above command is equivalent to:
sudo bc -i ~/Downloads/chrome_installer_windows.bundle.
Install the Chrome browser
Chrome is the latest version of Google’s open source browser. It is by far the most widely used web browser, reaching over a billion active monthly users. It offers a ton of unique features, like being able to seamlessly browse the web on a number of different devices and operating systems. In this guide, I will take you through the process of installing Chrome, configuring it, and then hopefully get you ready to go out there and get some things done.
