Menu
I need to run a web-based app inside Chrome but it must appear as if the app is standalone. I dont want any tools or frames to be visible.
Yes I know I can press F11 but this isnt sufficient as I dont want the tools to appear when I move the mouse to the top of the screen.
Do I need to go to the extents of making a Chrome extension and utilizing a possible fullscreen feature?

Right-click the button, or anywhere else on the bookmarks bar, and then click “Show Apps Shortcut” on the drop-down menu to deselect the option and hide it.
Click the Chrome menu button ( ⋮ or ☰ ) Select More tools → Create shortcut... Go to chrome://apps and find your new shortcut. Right-click on icon, and select “Open as window”
Visit the site you want in Chrome. Click the Chrome menu in your browser toolbar. Once you launch from that shortcut it will be a window without toolbar. The new way (late 2015) on ChromeOS is "More Tools", "Add to shelf...", "Open as window" (checkbox).
From the linux man page:
--app=URL Runs URL in "app mode": with no browser toolbars. e.g. invoke it with google-chrome --app=http://example.com
