  Description     : Typescript definitions for Chrome extension development

Modern JavaScript libraries provides their Typescript definitions to
permits to use them in JavaScript softwares written in Typescript.
When those definitions are missing, instead of writing custom
definitions in each program, some people provides external Typescript
definitions to be reused (definitions for module "foo" are exposed in
@types/foo). In Debian, we chose to embed them inside the node package.
For example, @types/braces is embedded in node-braces.

But @types/* are also used to define anything that can be used in
JavaScript (like @types/filesystem).

This package provides @types/chrome and its generic dependencies:
@types/filesystem and @types/filewriter.

node-types-chrome a dependency of some advanced Node.js modules and will
be a dependency of some Node.js modules needed to build JupyterLab.
It'll be maintained under JS Team umbrella.
