The extensions panel is your control center for extensions on SigmaOS. This is where you see your list of extensions, activate them, download new ones, etc.

In SigmaOS, extensions work hand in hand with workspaces. You can either:

Activate an extension in all workspaces: perfect for global extensions like password managers.
Activate an extension in a specific workspace: perfect to set-up advanced workflows.

By default we recommend activating extensions in specific workspaces, and then upgrading them to all workspaces if you need them everywhere. This is important because extensions can have an impact on performance, so having a more granular level of control can help you keep your browser smooth.
