In case you haven't seen yet @kzahel, Google is discontinuing Chrome apps on every platform except Chrome OS. Any plans for this then? Google says devs should convert it to either Progressive Web Apps or native packaging with Electron/NW.js.

Most users are on ChromeOS. So in my view this does not affect the app much. It just means in 2 years you won't be able to run it on mac/windows. A progressive web app is not really an option as socket and filesystem support won't come to progressive web apps. A lot can happen between now and 2018, though, so we'll see.
In my view the Electron/NW options are not good.
