What extensions have you installed and use with FlowLauncher? Why? #3879

GAC-Machine started this conversation in General

Topic

I see there is little-to-zero discussion on this topic, that is addons, extensions in Flow Launcher.

The discussion should focus on what to suggest using (the specific extension) and why (its advantage).
This is interesting, because if you have a look in the Plugin Store, you find many addons and many of them accomplish the same (or at least similar) task.

Info

To make sure it's useful and readable, make an unordered/number list (if you include priority).

@Flow-Launcher/team I wonder if we add a functionality that allow installing plugins based on a list, so people could share this list with others like- person A's favourite plugins list.

I have considered this feature with setting backup & restore (backup & restore with a list).

Since we have implemented internal plugin store model, this feature should be implementable.

Not sure if we would add this for Store, I was thinking more for the PM plugin, something like pm install github.com/user/repo/my-awesome-plugin-list

I see this as a reddit discussion not a github one. If we need a list function to install plugins then we need a better Plugin Store and the effort should go to improving that.

My idea was to enable the ease of sharing and installing plugins between users though.

Github: Helped me save time searching for warehouses;
Windows Services: Although not very commonly used, it is still needed occasionally.
GamesLauncher: Awesome multi-platform game search launcher

I just started using flow launcher, so I use very few plug-ins, and there are so many plug-ins in the store that it is difficult for me to look at them all without clear needs. So I am also very interested in this topic. What about yours?

My favorite is the Favorite-Plugin. By adding all my important "hotkeys" to its configuration file I have full control over that FlowLauncher is bringing up to screen. Further having my important stuff mentioned in a single configuration file keeps my work environment -just a s a wellcome side effect - documented (yes you can add comments to the config file too).
