| .SH "NAME" |

| .SH "DESCRIPTION" |
| .sp |
| The Chromium depot_tools suite contains many tools to assist/augment the Chromium development environment\&. The tools may be downloaded from \m[blue]\fBhere\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[1]\d\s+2\&. |
| .sp |
| There are two primary categories of tools\&. Some of these tools are \fIessential\fR to the development flow, in the sense that you cannot successfully develop Chromium without them\&. |
