I have downloaded several gnome-shell extensions from official Gnome site and installed. But, I don't want to install them every time, I re-install my Ubuntu. I want to have a feature to backup those extensions and restore them as required.
How can I do that?

I guess I figured it out. You have to replace (after backuping, for safety) the following three folders with the original ones previously saved from the system you want to clone:
~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions~/.local/share/gnome-shell/quicklaunch~/.config/dconfThen logout and login.
Let me know if it works, or if you find better ways!
