Chrome Serial Terminal

I am unabashedly a strong proponent of Chrome. It’s my go-to browser, and I even picked up a Dell Chromebook 11 a couple months ago to do essay writing on. While I find it great that Chrome ties into Google’s services nicely (and is a rock-solid browser), it’s the number of apps made for it that really sell me. That said, I recently discovered there are a few Serial Terminals available for the platform.

Diginow Serial Terminal

 

Available for free, the Diginow Serial Terminal lets you interface with everything from old computer hardware to newer Arduino boards. Although there are a number of other terminal applications available, this just happened to be the first one I installed and it seems to do a good job at what it advertises. It will most likely even replace my use of Putty’s serial interface, and may just make me dig that Arduino board I have out of storage to give it another try.

So if you’re in the need for a good serial terminal, you don’t have to look much further than your browser.
