Hi Jason, welcome :-)
I don't understand, you are a web developer so writing extensions shouldn't scare you as it uses the same technology :-). The hardest part is the lack of documentation, but you can look at the GS code that is here for guidance, that is what I do: /usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/ Depending on what you want to do, it may only take a line or two of code. Best of luck, Gabriel On Sat, May 18, 2013 at 3:05 AM, Jason Satterfield <jnsatterfi...@gmail.com>wrote: > I'm new to the list, so I guess I could introduce myself.
