Install Zrythm
1) 00:05 (time stamp in the video)
We start the process by enabling the Linux Container on our Chromebook.  You can al
ways remove it again in the future as well if needed.

To enable it, we go to the settings of our Chromebook, inside of it, we click on the "Advance" option in the left panel, and then the "Developers" section. Then enable Linux from there as seen in the video.

2) 00:37
Now we continue to the next phase in the tutorial and that is to run several commands in our Linux terminal, which will install Zrythm.

Some general facts about the terminal.  To paste a command into the Linux terminal, press "Ctrl Shift v" together.  After you paste a command into the Linux terminal, please press "enter" to run it.  At some commands you will see a question to press Y or n to continue.  If you see it press "enter" to continue.

2.1) This command will update the repositories of our Linux container.

sudo apt update

2.2) 01:15 This command will install an application called flatpak, which we will use to install Zrythm with.  The Y and n question will appear in this command, please press "enter" then.

sudo apt install flatpak

2.3) 01:32 This command will add the flathub repository to our Linux container, which we require to install Zrythm.

sudo flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo

2.4) 01:42 This command will install Zrythm.

a Person needs to press "enter" twice to start the installation process.

sudo flatpak install flathub org.zrythm.Zrythm

2.5) 02:11 This command will set the permissions for one package so that Zrythm will work as expected.

sudo chown root:root /usr/bin/bwrap && sudo chmod u+s /usr/bin/bwrap

3) 02:20
Now we will launch Zrythm.
* Put the sound to Pulseaudio for it to function, as seen in the video.

Update Zrythm
4)  04:00
After you installed Zrythm, and you notice that Zrythm received an update, you can run this commmand to upgrade your version of Zrythm to the latest version.

sudo flatpak update

Remove 
Zrythm
5) 04:25
To remove Zrythm in the future, if you want to, you can run these two commands.  It will just remove Zrythm, not the rest of oyur Linux Applications.

5.1) This command will remove Zrythm.

sudo flatpak uninstall org.zrythm.Zrythm

5.2) 04:41 This command will remove all other applications which just Zrythm requires.

sudo flatpak uninstall --unused

To remove the whole Linux container, look here

Enjoy!
