New Chrome device host extension

It is a chrome app that doesn't use NPAPI so it should work with the latest version.

https://github.com/cactrot/scratch-device-host-chrome-app

I've just been loading it as an unpacked extension in developer mode, so I haven't set up a proper host for it.

I was going to put it on the google play store after cleaning it up but I've been very busy lately.

The extensionID in scratchx is hard coded, I use the developer console to edit the live copy of scratch_nmh.js for testing.

I am using a cheap bluetooth serial that is very slow so I had to edit the scratch Arduino extension a bit to get it up and running.

You can't put that on the Google Play Store also I cannot use it because you haven't set it up correctly.

It just uses the serial api and chrome message passing. I'm not sure why that would prevent putting it on the play store.

When you say I haven't set it up correctly what do you mean?

I downloaded the extension from GitHub but… how do we use it? (I'm using Linux by-the-way)

I have a chrome app dev lincense, if you would like, I could publish it for you.
