Level Up (A5E) Two-Weapon Fighting clarification

Hello,
Two-Weapon Fighting (p446, AG) indicates "If you have the Extra Attack feature, you can use your bonus action to make two attacks with the weapon in your off-hand."
Does this mean that you still gain the benefit of two attacks using your bonus action even if you use one of your attacks for a basic maneuver?

The way I read it, I should be able to use my first attack to attempt a shove and then proceed with three attacks (one main, two attacks using bonus action).
If so, then it makes TWF quite flexible - shove small creatures; grab-on large creatures then potentially attack with advantage on remaining three attacks.

Yup.
 

Thanks guys.
Are there any other features that can be used beyond basic maneuvers in this way?

I tried looking in the AG but I can't figure out the correct search term - "replaces an attack made on your turn" or something similar doesn't find anything.
