How to send messages between 2 chrome tabs (from different origins) without a server or an extension?

I am developing my web app in React on Chrome.

I have tried...

  1. To get a reference of the Window object of one tab from the other tab, but I can do this only if I use window.open() witch opens a new tab and I need to get a reference to an existing tab. Also changing window.name and then window.open('', 'windowName') didn't help. Maybe there is a way to get the Window reference of an existing tab without opening a new one?

  2. To open a UDP socket but I failed to (I think it is not possible on Chrome).

  3. To open a TCP socket, but it requires a TCP server witch as far as I read, chrome client can't open one.

  4. Local storage is shareable only between tabs from same origin (or aren't they?).
