I thought this would be easy but I can't find any link to a simple tar.gz/tar.bz2/zip archive.
Chrome uses some custom tools like build_depot
to even download the source code. But I don't want to compile the source code, I just want to see how they do something in the source code.
So all I need is the source code download link, in the simplest possible form. Is there any way at all to find a zip archive containing all the source code, without reading howtos and building and compiling tools just to be able to download it?
Even old versions would do. I don't need to compile anything, I just need the code, and there are no download links to that.
On the Get the code page you have a link to the source tarball.
