Description

A GNOME Shell extension that brings desktop icons back to GNOME, allowing files, folders, drives, and launchers to appear on the desktop background. It is useful for users who prefer direct access to common items outside the file manager.

Install it if desktop icons are part of your workflow. It changes shell behavior and may overlap with other file or desktop layout extensions.
