I’m even eager to try some of the lower cost Chrome devices - even a Chromebit, the $85 computer in an HDMI stick. The Pixelbook starts at $999, a premium price-point for Chrome devices, but it’s still less than a third of the cost of my previous MacBook Pro. Now, I have the Google Pixelbook, which is my favorite so far. I first tried an HP Chromebook, then I experimented with the stylus and touchscreen of the Samsung Pro. There’s a ton of options for Chrome hardware, and I’ve looked at all of them. There are a bunch of Chrome OS devices, what should I use to design? The touchscreen computer has been surprisingly nice to have for scrolling through long documents and Slack conversations or even navigating around a canvas. Additionally, sometimes you are limited by your access to the internet, however the Chromebook still has some functionality when you are offline.

Some things to watch out for: Currently, there is no ability to install custom typefaces, but Google Fonts offers a ton of great options and you have access to all of them.

There are always other tools you need for design: Slack, Grammarly, accessibility testing tool Funkify, and G Suite are all web-based, so I didn’t have issues there either.

Figma is super fast everywhere I’ve used it, and works great across the three different Chromebooks I’ve tried. In Figma, opening the Shortcuts menu will show you keyboard shortcuts for whichever operating system you are currently using, including Chrome OS. The Search key (in place of the caps lock key) can be used as a modifier, such as Search + drag duplicates an object.

The Control key is the Command key equivalent, and yes your finger will get used to its location.

I had been using it for the previous 3 years before I switched to Chromebook, so I was in good shape when I made the jump.

The design tool Figma is the only one I know of that runs in the cloud, so it’s necessary for designing on Chromebooks.

It’s been an adjustment, but overall, I’ve gone Chromebook and I’ll never go back. But I had no idea how Chromebooks would handle performance, or how I’d go about meeting my other design needs.

Would this Chrome computer sit on my desk, collecting dust after a day of usage due to my preference for macOS? I’ve been designing with Figma for the previous three years (I was lucky enough to get an alpha invite), so my primary design software was already in the cloud. They decided to transition some people over for a range of reasons - from the security of Chromebooks (they’re way safe) to their affordability to the fact that files are always backed up and synced.Īs a designer, I could’ve chosen to stick with Macs, but because I worked with people inside the company on internal presentations, I decided I needed the true Chromebook experience to empathize with my “customers.” Well, Square, my previous company, persuaded me to make the move. For the past year I’ve been working as a professional, paid (yes, paid!) designer using a Chromebook as my primary computer. I’m here to tell you it’s possible, and I’ll even share the tips that made it so. Even today, few would think to trade out their Apple computer for a Chrome device. They were limited by power, software, and screen quality. When Chromebooks first came out, it would’ve been a pipe dream to believe they could replace Macs for designers.
