Installation

Installation from GNOME Extensions

The easiest way to install the latest official version of Dash-to-Panel is from GNOME Extensions or using a tool like Extension Manager.

Installation from Github

The extension can be installed directly from source, either for the convenience of using git or to test the latest development version.

General instructions

Install prerequisites: git, make and gettext. As an example, on Ubuntu you'd run sudo apt install git make gettext.

Download the branch as a zip from github or clone the desired branch with git using

git clone https://github.com/home-sweet-gnome/dash-to-panel.git

Then, to install the extension in your home directory, from the dash-to-panel directory, run

make install

A Shell reload (Alt+F2 r Enter) or logout is required, and the extension has to be enabled using either an extension manager (e.g. Extension Manager), the gnome-extensions enable dash-to-panel@jderose9.github.com command, GNOME Extensions' website or dconf.
