I vaguely recall double-clicking on a .docx file on a pen drive and it opened in the browser via Google Workspace (I don't have a Chromebook handy to verify it) Give it a try and let us know if it works. (PS Chromebooks do not have a lot of storage. I'm not sure one could install the entire LibreOffice suite via the Linux Developer shell) -- Arun Khan
