I have no idea how to get that extension or how to install it.

Is there some simple guide?

edit: all I see here

https://github.com/google/end-to-end

We’re releasing this code to enable community review; it is not yet ready for general use

They have a Wiki that has build/install instructions: https://github.com/google/end-to-end/wiki/Build-instructions.

Basically, clone the Git repo then do:

  ./do.sh install_deps
  ./do.sh build_extension

This results in an extension folder that can be installed via Chrome's developer mode.

That is the way I built it. I wanted to add that java is required.

A Windows build environment is not supported.

Wonder what they thougt there? Windows is where the majority of users are, it's where the people who can't (or don't want to) use command line tools for encryption are.

Why would you even approach this from a Linux-first angle? I'd understand if it was because the developers are typically Linux users and they want it thuroughly tested before shipping a user friendly version (i.e chrome ext for windows).

It's not ready for consumers yet. The end result will be a Chrome extension anyway.

Interesting that they've had a vulnerability reward program since June 2014. I wonder how that's getting on

They provided an update last December[1] and stated that two rewards have been given. The same update is also interesting because it mentioned the migration from Google Code to Github (three months ago!). The blog post talked about Yahoo! contribution to the project too...
