Google Chat Unread Notifier

[argumentum]

A local lightweight Chrome Extension and desktop relay, designed to detect unread status changes in an installed "Google Chat Progressive Web App (PWA)", and forwards an HTTP notification to a local receiver ( the GoogleChatAlert.au3 script in the zip file ).

The script it lives in the tray. It can hide the PWA window and it'll show it when something comes in.
Double click the tray icon to show/hide the window. Right click for the context menu.

Note: My total hands-on experience with this is about 1 to 2 hours. If you run into issues or have questions, post them.

Wrote this because I never use google chat and needed to know that there's a new message even if am on an RDP session, and am usually on a VM or another.
