Are extensions that let you add features to and modify pretty much anything about the GNOME desktop environment.
They allow you to customize your desktop’s appearance and behavior, from adding a traditional taskbar to tweaking animations and more.
You can install them from the Extensions Manager app, an easy way to browse, install, and update extensions.
Things to Know
Community-Driven: Most extensions are made by the community, not the GNOME team.
Version Sensitive: Extensions can break after a GNOME Shell update until the developer updates them.
Burn My Windows is a GNOME / KWin extension that lets you disintegrate your windows with style.
When you close or open a window, it will cool visual effects — fire, shards, glitch, portals — all configurable.
It’s totally useless… and that’s the point.
Features:
Many visual effects—Fire, Broken Glass, Doom melt, Glitch, Portal, Pixelate, and more
Configurable effects — pick which one triggers, tweak speed, style, etc.
Modular & extensible — you can build your own effect with GLSL + JS knowledge
Steal My Focus is a GNOME Shell extension that gets rid of that annoying “Window is ready” popup, and automatically focuses the new window.
It’s a small tweak, but smooths out your workflow by giving focus control back to you.
I dont like KDE connect so much, I just cant get used to it…
I wanted to use scrcpy and somehow integrate it as much as i could
claude made this extension for me scrcpy-quicksettings@local (Copy).zip (10.7 KB)
its a little icon in the top bar to launch scrcpy with saveable launch profiles graphically,
so far it’s full of bugs and not much more then proof of concept
whoever would like to devolop it further…
