Launch favorite apps from app switcher (i.e. Super+Tab or Alt+Tab) popup.
Git repository: https://github.com/dsboger/gnome-shell-extension-super-tab-launcher
E.g.o: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/1133/supertab-launcher/
Have you ever tried to switch to an App, hit Super+Tab (or Alt+Tab) and just then realize the App you sought after is not running? Then you had to cancel the popup, bring the overview and launch the wanted App? This extension aims to streamline the process by adding your (non-running) favorite Apps in the Super+Tab (or Alt+Tab) switcher, after the running Apps: just "switch" to a non-running App and it will be launched!
- Super+Tab Launcher was tested with GNOME Shell 3.22+
- It may (and probably will) interfere with other extensions that also modify Super+Tab (or Alt+Tab) switcher. This scenario was not tested yet. If you find an incompatibility that you would like to see fixed, please file a bug report!
You may simply go to the e.g.o URL above and install the latest, reviewed release of Super+Tab Launcher. It is also possible to install from the Git repository by cloning (or downloading a release snapshot) and running the following commands from the root folder:
./autogen.sh
./configure
make localinstall
