I want to add a little personized feature to a clock desklet that i use. Is it a bad idea to edit the JavaScript code that cinnamon runs? (iirc its in /home/coby/.local/cinnamon/desklets)
When the desklet updates, will it simply overwrite my changes? Will it cause it to crash? Or will it fail to update? Are there other concerns i should have?
The feature in question is that i want month days to have suffixs. For example, instead of "Jan 8" i want it to be "Jan 8th"

Just make sure to make a copy of the original. And why not install KVM and experiment there before making changes to your real system?

The main issue is that it will be overridden on update. Ideally you should try to make a Pull Request to https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon-spices-desklets for your change to be upstreamed if the maintainer/author accepts your change, or maintain a local personalized version of yours with a different uuid to avoid it being overriden.

I'll look into KVM and create a backup file
