finding documentation to manually alter my desktop
0
I am a retired programmer currently using Fedora 29, with Cinnamon manually installed, via dnf. I am already reasonably comfortable with bash. I would like to remove my dependency on Cinnamon.org (as well as any Fedora-Cinnamon-spin), and teach myself how to use bash to manually alter Fedora's default gnome-3 desktop to approximate the Cinnamon desktop. This includes a taskbar for favorite icons and minimized apps, a system tray, and a lower left corner menu for launching apps. My guess is that GTK will be involved, as well as the gsettings command. I am looking for tutorials/guides that discuss the overall task at a high level, identifying the relevant issues and subtasks, and listing the order that the subtasks should be accomplished in a script. Hopefully, the documentation would then offer sample scripts...
