Getting Scratch Link on chromebook for microbits?
Has anyone found a solution to using the microbit extension on a Chromebook? I can't download Scratch Link on Chrome OS.
Hi,
you don't need Scratch Link on a chrome book, but you do need a special Scratch app. If you use that official Scratch app you can make Scratch projects and connect your micro:bit to Scratch.
Greetings,
PinkyPepper

I faced the same issue while developing a robotics programmable car, the issue is I want it to work with Android phones/tablets.
Luckily for me EPS32 has WiFi also unlike nRF51822, so I was able to connect directly from browser using websockets instead of the BLE link application. The result is, its much faster, the connection does not drops unlike the BLE method, where its take some time to connect, and drops randomly.

I use Chrome NOT Chromebook You can only download Scratch (Any version, I believe) on Windows or Mac. I also use a Chromebook and ran into the same problem.
