Do you expect me to rebuild this app as Chrome Extensions? #128

I'm a developer who built "File System for Dropbox" app for ChromeOS.

It will not work after ending supporting Chrome Apps. But, you might be able to use it if I rebuild it as Chrome Extensions.

Yoichiro,

Dropbox is VERY IMPORTANT to me as a daily computer user and I'm sure it is for many others. It would be a wonderful thing if you could make 'Filesystem for Dropbox' a Chrome Extension if that is the best way to assure long term compatibility.

Thank you for all you do!

Robert

I too would very much appreciate the update / rewrite to be a chrome extension. Thank you!!

First, I would like to thank you for your work on this extension as it has been a life saver.

However, with the recent developments between dropbox and google I would not make it a high priority. It seems like the two are playing nice again. For those unaware, the dropbox android app now has integration with the chromeos files app. Therefore, loading the android app will give you access to your dropbox just like this extension. I read this last week and just verified it works on my chromebook.

@mccyclone Hmm... If it is true, actually don't need to migrate my app to an extension. (I don't try the android app yet)
