Hi,

I have experimented a UI plugin with chromeless feature and it worked fine. However, my goal is to replicate the home page UI plugin without the Kibana navigation and replace with our custom navigation menus.

I have tried to copy the 'home' plugin source and build as a custom plugin with chromeless feature but I think that's a bit overkill. Is there any API that I can call to forward to home app or simple extend the HomePlugin class instead?

Thanks  
Joe

Looks like this does the job.

```auto
  public async start(core: CoreStart): MyCustomHomePluginStart {

	// Chromeless
        core.chrome.setIsVisible(false);

        core.application.navigateToApp('home');
    return {

    };
  }

```
