We do not recommend to implement slicelets without main window for many reasons. Slicer now has built-in scripts to strip down the default main window from Python (see [here](https://www.slicer.org/wiki/Documentation/Nightly/Developers/Slicelets)). For more control, you can create a [custom application](https://github.com/KitwareMedical/SlicerCustomAppTemplate) in C++ (based on a default main window that you can customize any way you need).
