A native GTK4/libadwaita desktop application for browsing, installing, and managing GNOME Shell Extensions. It integrates with extensions.gnome.org to search, install, remove, enable, disable, and update extensions directly from the app.
Use cases
- browse and install GNOME Shell extensions without a web browser
- manage installed GNOME extensions from a native app
- update GNOME Shell extensions in-app
- search extensions.gnome.org with screenshots and user comments
- enable or disable GNOME extensions quickly
- customize the GNOME desktop with extensions
When to choose
- you use GNOME desktop and want a native, adwaita-styled extension manager
- you want to avoid using the extensions.gnome.org website and browser extension
- you want in-app extension updates on GNOME 43+
When to avoid
- you don't run GNOME Shell (e.g., KDE, XFCE, Windows, macOS)
- you prefer managing extensions via command line or gnome-extensions CLI
- you need to develop extensions rather than install them
