"GNOME Shell is the defining technology of the GNOME 3 desktop user experience.
It provides core interface functions like switching to windows and launching applications.
GNOME Shell takes advantage of the capabilities of modern graphics hardware and introduces innovative user interface concepts
to provide a delightful and easy to use experience."
