‘Search Light’ Brings GNOME Shell Search to the Desktop, macOS-Style

Looking for a desktop-based app launcher for GNOME Shell? Check out Search Light, whose developer describes it as “…a Gnome Shell extension that takes the apps search widget out of Overview. Like the macOS spotlight, or Alfred.” Linux users may be more familiar with the idea via open-source software like ULauncher, Albert, Kupfer and, back in the day, GNOME Do. Now, Search Light itself doesn’t surface result the regular GNOME Shell search can’t. It’s essentially the same widget, just floating above all windows. To control what kind of results you see for queries toggle on/off options listed in the system
