If you are having trouble installing MuseScore 4 on your Chromebook, there are a few unofficial videos on YouTube. For example:

There is also an out-of-date Handbook article which describes installing MuseScore 3 on a Chromebook:

As regards starting your own score, the Handbook might help:

... and in particular the Basics chapter:

Indeed, in order to install MuseScore, you need Linux. All Chromebooks made in the last several years support it, but some extremely old one don't. Also, some "managed" Chromebooks (eg, owned by a school or other organization) might disallow it, so you'd have to get your system administrator to lift that restriction for you.

If all else fails, you could try rollApp, which support MuseScore and other apps via the cloud. It worked last I tried but the experience is definitely not optimal. It's probably worth the $150 or whatever it might cost to buy a new computer you can use normally (or less for a used one).
