The headline is very non-specific. Here's what's going on:
In a multi-stage, two year effort, the Chrome App Store is being deprecated on Windows, Mac, Linux, but not ChromeOS. They're asking people to migrate to websites/webapps instead. Extensions and themes are unaffected. By 2018, only ChromeOS will be able to run apps in the Chrome App Store.
- denzil_correa 10y agoThanks! I could hardly understand the blog post.
- glenstein 10y agoForgive my ignorance, but isn't the Chrome App Store also the place where you get extensions? Presumably there will still be some centralized place to get extensions.
- niftich 10y agoYes, but extensions are unaffected. This is about 'apps' from that same store.
- wodenokoto 10y agoI thought "apps" was Chrome-speak for extensions.
