1895142 - [Menu Redesign] Display a list of recommended extensions

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1885648

The task here is to add the recommended extensions section in the Extensions submenu.

The recommended list of extensions should display a dynamic list 4 extensions. Meaning we should fetch the list of recommended extensions from the addons API and randomly pick 4 to display.

So we're moving away from the collection-based list of featured extensions?

Based on the UX specification (see attached screenshot), we are not using a collection based list. We are basically doing the equivalent of taking 4 addons that would normally be displayed in the recommend section of the addons manager.

I know Aarjav from UX spoke with sdevaney about this and it was determined that we should display a dynamic list of 4 extensions instead of a curated list. If you have further questions, please visit #mobile-menu-toolbar-redesign

OK, that's fine I guess but we're going to break the collection-based feature (with the override) and we might want to think about it.
