The README has a list of extensions with a brief description, but the most recent additions haven't been added yet. Rectify that. Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell-extensions/-/merge_requests/352>
GNOME Shell Extensions
GNOME Shell Extensions is a collection of extensions providing additional and optional functionality to GNOME Shell.
The extensions in this package are supported by GNOME and will be updated to reflect future API changes in GNOME Shell.
Both the most recent stable release and the previous stable release of GNOME Shell are actively supported, as well as the current development branch.
Please refer to the schedule to see when a new version will be released.
Bugs should be reported to the GNOME bug tracking system.
