Bookmarking this URL should give you a full-screen compose window, without any distractions:

https://mail.google.com/mail/?view=cm&fs=1&tf=1

Additionally, if you want to be future-proof (see for instance how other URLs in this question stopped working) you can bookmark a link to:

mailto:

It will open your default email client and you probably already have Gmail configured for that purpose.

https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/x/?&v=b&eot=1&pv=tl&cs=b

This link works for composing directly in m.gmail.com as mobile in a desktop browser. Why? It is really faster.

It's worth pointing out that if you have multiple Gmail accounts, you may want to use the URL approach because you can customize which account to compose from.

e.g.

https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox?compose=new   
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/1/#inbox?compose=new

For Chrome:

  1. Set your email manager to Gmail

  1. Write mailto: in the address bar and press enter.

Easier:

  1. Edit search engines:

  1. Write mt and enter in address bar.

The GMail web client supports mailto: links

For regular @gmail.com accounts: https://mail.google.com/mail/?extsrc=mailto&url=...

For G Suite accounts on domain gsuitedomain.com: https://mail.google.com/a/gsuitedomain.com/mail/?extsrc=mailto&url=...

... needs to be replaced with a urlencoded mailto: link.

Demo: https://mail.google.com/mail/?extsrc=mailto&url=mailto%3A%3Fto%3Dsomeguy%40gmail.com%26bcc%3Dmyattorney%40gmail.com%2Cbuzzfeed%40gmail.com%26subject%3DHi%2520There%26body%3Dbody%2520goes%2520here

The example URLs for standard gmail, above, return a google error.

The February 2014 post to thread 2583928 recommends replacing view=cm&fs=1&tf=1 with &v=b&cs=wh.

Note: It also no longer seems possible to autopopulate the mail body.

When you click on compose email in Gmail notice that the url changes from https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox to https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox?compose=new. Now when you enter say a email id xyz@gmail.com , the value for compose changes now the url became https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox?compose=150b0f7ffb682642.

So this is working fine with my html hyperlink until the account is signed in, but if the account is not signed in it would take me the login page and when I enter the credentials somehow this compose value is lost and this does not work.
