What is ArcMenu?
ArcMenu is an application menu/start menu for GNOME Shell, designed to provide a more familiar user experience and workflow. This extension has many features, including various menu layout styles, GNOME search, quick access to system shortcuts, and much more!
Several layouts are inspired by other OS's app launchers/start menus.
Has very limited customization options.
Can show a list of frequently used apps (rare on Linux, for some reason), though only one of the layouts actually supports this as the default view.
