Microsoft Chromium Edge is the new web navigator of Microsoft. It shares the same Chromium base as Google Chrome. Thanks to that, it supports Google Chrome Extension.
But I cannot find how to automatically install Google Chrome extension at the same time as Edge installation. Any help ?
The context of my question is partial deployment in a big enterprise. I've searched in Microsoft documentation without success until now.
Microsoft Edge (Chromium) browser is still in development stage and it is not officially launched yet.
The beta version of the browser is available for download which user can download from link below.

At present, it is not possible to preinstall the Chrome extensions in Edge chromium browser while installing the browser.

I will take your requirement as a feature request for this browser and try to submit it via our internal channel.
Thanks for your understanding.

I have a Django app that web-scrapes (using Selenium) that I am trying to deploy to google cloud. I am having issues with opening Chrome driver in the virtual environment on google's servers. I believe they are Linux.
I was able to install the linux version of Chromedriver into the virtual environment but I am getting a "cannot find Chrome binary" error as pictured:

I have done some research and it seems that this is because Google Chrome is not installed in the virtual environment. The links to install Google Chrome online all force me to download macOS versions.
How can I download Google Chrome (specifically its binary) on my Mac so I can put it in the virtual environment that will be run on linux?
I think that StackOverflow is not the proper place to ask for this kind of question.
You could try to find your problem in the following Google Chrome Help page.
If you don't find the answer in the previous link, you could ask for help in the Google Chrome Help Community.

I am a bit confused... I was reading the tutorial for developing chrome extensions. But once I reach the step where to release it, I saw the developer console this message.
Does it means that my chrome extension will no longer available for chrome browser on any other OS than Chrome OS?
Chrome Apps are not Chrome extensions. The change in policy applies to Chrome Apps, not Chrome Extensions.
Your Chrome extension will be available for users of Google Chrome on all OS platforms where Chrome supports extensions (i.e. not on Android).

Update (2016-03-19)
Not yet, but Edge decided to support the roughly the same WebExtensions model as Firefox - partial compatibility with Chrome extensions. They will be offered through Windows Store.
Edge has started rolling out experimental extension support. This is currently in Insider Preview builds and an extremely closed platform preview / closed beta. See also updated FAQs.
Some choice Twitter quotes from devs:
Jacob Rossi on porting extensions
Lots of questions on this: yes we're working on a porting tool to run Chrome extensions in Edge. Not yet finished and not all APIs supported
Jacob Rossi on Store accessibility for developers
extn's in Store will at first be a carefully selected set covering top scenarios and API coverage, opening up to more in future
Kyle Pflug on sideloading non-Store extensions
We'll allow side-loading after launch, but will require dev mode toggle & will have appropriate warnings in UI
I've read about Packaged Apps and played with the example apps. I can load them into my Chrome Canary, but I can't seem to find a way to build/package a .app for OS X. Is this not possible yet, or am I just missing something?
Previously Google Chrome packaged apps were only for Google Chrome. According to a recent blog post by Sriram Saroop, the product manager for Chromium, there is an available Chrome App Launcher to run Google Chrome packaged apps outside of the browser.
The Chrome App Launcher will be coming "soon" to Mac and Linux.
