Wireless cast to monitor

[Lander]

I have an HP Spectre laptop and am thinking of purchasing and: Sceptre 4K IPS 27" 3840 x 2160 UHD Monitor up to 70Hz DisplayPort HDMI 99% sRGB Build-in Speakers, Black 2021 (U275W-UPT)  More details at https://www.amazon.com/Sceptre-Monitor-DisplayPort-Speakers-U275W-UPT/dp/B098HQ8YRX/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_... 

I'm no expert, and so I cannot determine from the specs of the monitor if I could use a Chromecast to wirelessly link and view my laptop screen on the monitor.  Can you tell me if the specs of the Sceptre will support Chomecast?

All modern TVs support connecting a Chromecast device to them.  You just need an HDMI port to plug into.

You can cast from your laptop using the Chrome browser:

But, one thing you need to know.  You HAVE to have a compatible phone or tablet that can run the Google Home app to setup your Chromecast device.  You CANNOT use a computer to do the setup.

You also need a WiFi network with full internet access to run a Chromecast device.

Thank you Big Guy.  My concern was that the monitor is not a TV: just an external monitor for my laptop.  But it does have three HDMI ports, so that should do the trick, right?  And I use Google Home on my Android phone already for my wi-fi, so that should not be a problem.  Many thanks!
