Semalt Expert: What Is A Chrome Web Store?

The Chrome Web Store is Google's online store for web applications and was rst launched in May 2010 by Vic Gundotra. It has loads of browser themes, extensions, and applications, all of which are written in CSS, HTML, Google Apps Script and JavaScript. The store currently hosts both free and paid apps, and you can easily manage the Chrome extensions by pressing the menu icon in the right corner of your web browser, selecting the "More tools" option and clicking on the "Extensions" button. The most famous Google Chrome extensions have been discussed below.

1. LastPass - Free Password Manager: LastPass can be accessed in the Chrome Web Store and is one of the best extensions on the net.

Every time you log into your site, this extension will enter the password automatically and will save your time and energy. The service asks us if we'd like to remember the login information or not.
