Description

Although title is enough for what I want, but still... Is there a way to make transparent/partially-transparent window with eel?

Thanks... (in advance)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate Eel's underlying window implementation (likely based on Chrome or pywebview) to determine if there is a way to set window transparency. Check documentation and source code for window options or startup parameters that might allow transparency. Consider using platform specific window management APIs (Windows, macOS, Linux) if not directly supported by Eel.
