I don't know whether it's a bug or feature in Chrome, however @brandoncomputer found a way to launch Chrome extension's window like a standalone app #49. To do so one needs to run Chrome with --app
switch like this:
/path/to/google-chrome --app="chrome-extension://ijmgkhchjindcjamnckoiahagecjnkdc/popup.html"
So under Unix-like OS you could use the following script:
#!/bin/bash
`which google-chrome` --app="chrome-extension://ijmgkhchjindcjamnckoiahagecjnkdc/popup.html"
And on Windows one needs to create a shortcut LNK file running Chrome with the above parameter.
$ npm install
$ gulp
