This isn't likely to be a good place to ask for that; you probably want gnome-shell list. Also, JavaScript numeric integer types are limited to 32 bits, so even if GLib had some facilities, you wouldn't be able to pass around JavaScript native number objects that span over the required range. > I also need to work with a library for handling (really) big numbers (up 100 > digits).

No. You probably want GMP - https://gmplib.org/ - but that library is not introspectable by itself, so it cannot be accessed via JavaScript. To be absolutely fair, the idea of a GNOME Shell extension that deals with big numbers is weird to me. Why not write an application?
