This is a dream come true
Im exactly searching this !!
You can just
git clone https://github.com/pop-os/shell.git
Then cd
into the directory,
make && make install && make enable
keep this in mind:
make && make install && make enable →
UUID is “pop-shell@system76.com”
if ! command -v tsc >/dev/null; then
echo ‘You must install TypeScript >= 3.8 to transpile: (node-typescript on Debian systems)’;
exit 1;
fi
You must install TypeScript >= 3.8 to transpile: (node-typescript on Debian systems)
make: *** [Makefile:43: depcheck] Error1
I guess there must be node+typscript installed too. Did you get this working?
I’m using this daily now.
I guess it wouldn’t even work if you have TypeScript installed, seems like shell depends on Gnome Shell 3.36. Clear ships with 3.34.3 at the moment. But maybe i’m wrong? @doct0rHu
But yes, it looks interesting and i would like to try it, too.
It works with gnome 3.34
sudo swupd bundle-add nodejs-basic
sudo npm install -g typescript
run make after that.
Thanks for the info. I was kind of able to install it, but somehow the extensions did not work, I wasn’t able to start any application afterwards. I think I’ll retry it when 3.36 is available for CL. N
On the login screen, change from Xorg to Wayland. I got it to work but I think my other Gnome customizations interfered with it.
I’m able to run it in Xorg.
Popos power management too works this way?
Did it work ?I get same error
Fails for me at this stage,

EDIT: Restarting gnome-shell (logout & login) fixed it. Just enable the extension manually. See Cannot make local-install · Issue #703 · pop-os/shell · GitHub
