Here's the doc that tracks Web Bluetooth implementation status in Chrome:

https://github.com/WebBluetoothCG/web-bluetooth/blob/master/implementation-status.md

On Linux, there are some additional prerequisites:

Linux: Requires Kernel 3.19+ and BlueZ 5.41+ installed. Read How to get Chrome Web Bluetooth working on Linux.
Note that Bluetooth daemon needs to run with experimental interfaces if BlueZ version is lower than 5.43: sudo /usr/sbin/bluetoothd -E
