Open chromium on boot

Question

I'm trying to open chromium when the Raspberry Pi 3B+ boots. I've found this post, but my raspberry doesn't seem to have the /home/pi/.config/lxsession folder.

I tried creating the autostart file but It it won't work:

sudo nano /home/pi/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart

Any clues?
