curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/oae/gnome-shell-extensions-sync/master/installer.sh | bash
- This extension depends on gxml
- Create a new gist from here I suggest you make it secret.
- Create a new token from here. Only gist permission is needed since we edit the gists.
- Open extension settings and fill gist id from first step and gist token from second step.
- Enjoy!
