Wish there was some kind of a "Electron kitchen" where you could easily make your own app stating which website you want to use in this isolated way, without having to learn about Electron.

Why not just run Chrome in app (or kiosk) mode?

I use this for reading my gmail. I use the --user-data-dir flag to prevent the "app" from interfering with my other browsers.
