                <h3>Fly-Pie</h3>
                <p>Fly-Pie is one of my main spare-time projects. It is an extension for GNOME Shell which lets you open marking menus via keyboard shortcuts. It is basically the follow-up project of Gnome-Pie.

                <h3>The Desktop-Cube</h3>
                <p>When I started using Linux more than a decade ago, it was because of the 3D desktop cube of Compiz. Therefore, I decided to re-create a similar effect for GNOME Shell!

                <h3>Burn-My-Windows</h3>
                <p>With this GNOME Shell extension, I want to revive one of the most useless features of Linux desktop history: Setting windows on fire!
