Subject: Shutdown OptionsI'm new to the list, so I guess I could introduce myself. My name is Jason and I've been an avid Ubuntu user since Dapper Drake. Professionally, I am a Microsoft Web developer doing contract work. At night, however, I have been tinkering with Linux programming for a few years. After a hiatus from Ubuntu after the release of Gnome 3 (I wasn't an early adopter), I have recently started toying with ideas for extending Gnome 3.So now for the reason of this post. I've got an idea about a shutdown option, but after downloading the Gnome-shell source, I immediately realized that I'm not prepared to create an HTML5/_javascript_ extension. Would anyone here have any advice for me? If I could simply make a recommendation, then that would be enough for me to know that someone else might be able to make an extension that addresses my idea into a reality..~JNS

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,

Shell extensions are not HTML5/_javascript_. while they are written in
(a superset of) JS and may use (a subset of) CSS for styling, they are
not using HTML for their scene graph.
usually asking specific questions helps getting better answers, though.
ciao,
Emmanuele.
