## Description

**App for Google Translate™** is a convenient Chrome extension that provides quick and easy access to Google Translate directly from your desktop browser. By clicking the toolbar button, users can open a standalone, resizable window that allows seamless text translation without the clutter of browser tabs or pop-ups.

Designed to emulate Chrome App behavior, this extension operates as a lightweight tool that clears itself completely when closed, ensuring no background processes slow down your browser. Featuring a simple toolbar with intuitive buttons and tooltips, it offers a user-friendly experience for translating text on-the-fly while browsing. Note that this is an unofficial wrapper for the Google Translate web service and is independently maintained.
