I’ll try to document places where I had to “experiment” or piece together things to work the way I wanted it to. I can’t be certain that this will work on your device, especially if your configuration deviates from mine, but hopefully it can still be useful in some part.
To aid those from the internet who might stumble across this post, I’m going to lay out the goal of this process explicitly: this post goes through the process of installing elementary OS 5.0 “Juno” alongside Chrome OS on the internal storage of my Chromebook, a Samsung Chromebook 3 “Celes” XE501C13-K02US (with a “Braswell” Intel Dual-Core Celeron N3060 processor, 4 GB of DDR3 RAM, and 32 GB of eMMC storage). With a bit of effort, I’ve managed to get this to work pretty well to save others (and myself, if I end up having to redo this later!) time I felt like it might be useful to document my installation process here.

What is more interesting, however, is that Chromebooks allow for disabling verified boot: while Chrome OS is itself Linux-based, with this validation disabled we can also install a full-blown, “standard” Linux distribution on the device.

Considering that it’s pretty easy to find them for under $200, they seemed like a good deal, especially taking into account the new features that Chrome OS has been adding (namely, the ability to install Android apps and run Linux in an container via Crostini). I recently decided to purchase a Chromebook.
