G6 Stroke-based Chinese Input Method (Beta) is a Chrome extension developed by karllauy. It is a beta version of a stroke-based Chinese input method specifically designed for ChromeOS. The extension is currently undergoing testing and development, and users are encouraged to try it out and provide feedback.

The input method allows users to switch between different input modes using the option menu, without the need for any alphabet keys. When the "Input Language is Chinese" option is checked, users can input strokes and type Chinese characters using the buttons 'U', 'I', 'O', 'J', 'K', and 'L', without typing any English alphabets. If users wish to type in English, they can simply uncheck the "Input Language is Chinese" option in the menu.

It's important to note that this input method is based on the "Sample IME for IME extension API".
