Change Google chrome homepage by extension

Is there anyway to change google chrome homepage url by an extension. I'm trying to write a simple extension which can change homepage url.

Hope you can help me.

It is possible, and a quick search reveals that such an extension already exists.

If you want to do it yourself, you can have a look at the Override Pages documentation. You can change the New Tab page, and therefore can simply implement an HTTP redirect in Javascript to the page you want.

Insert this code to manifest.json:

"chrome_settings_overrides": {     "homepage": "http://www.homepage.com" }
