# GNOME Shell Extensions
|
|
|
|
GNOME Shell Extensions is a collection of extensions providing additional
|
|
and optional functionality to GNOME Shell.
|
|
|
|
Since GNOME Shell is not API stable, extensions work only against a very
|
|
specific version of the shell, usually the same as this package (see
|
|
"configure --version"). The extensions in this package are supported by GNOME
|
|
and will be updated to reflect future API changes in GNOME Shell.
|
|
|
|
The GNOME wiki has more information about [GNOME Shell Extensions][project-page],
|
|
as well as some general information about [GNOME Shell][shell-page].
|
|
|
|
Bugs should be reported to the GNOME [bug tracking system][bug-tracker].
|
|
|
|
