# adw-gtk3 An unofficial GTK3 port of [libadwaita](https://gnome.pages.gitlab.gnome.org/libadwaita/). ^{*This port does not claim to be a 100% look-a-like of libadwaita. There are some limitations to what GTK3 can do.*} | Light theme | Dark theme | |:-----------:|:----------:| | ![adw-gtk3-light](preview-light.png?raw=true) | ![adw-gtk3-dark](preview-dark.png?raw=true) | ^{*Wallpapers: [here](https://imgur.com/a/Bcw5L) and [here](https://i.imgur.com/bb6B3tL.jpg)*}

## How to install

Tarball

Go to the releases section and download the latest tar.xz file.
Extract the file to ~/.local/share/themes/ (or /usr/share/themes if you want to install it for all users.)

Note: Do not extract it to multiple locations. Only use one path.

If you use flatpak applications it's recommended to install the flatpak themes. From a terminal run:
```
flatpak install org.gtk.Gtk3theme.adw-gtk3 org.gtk.Gtk3theme.adw-gtk3-dark
```

Note: Flatpak GTK4 applications can't be styled by the theme.

You can then enable adw-gtk3 in the application gnome-tweaks. (Some applications may require a relog.)

If you use the dark theme you'll also need to enable the dark appearance in gnome-control-center.

Alternatively you can set the theme with your terminal:

Change the theme to adw-gtk3 light:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme 'adw-gtk3' && gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface color-scheme 'default'

Change the theme to adw-gtk3-dark:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme 'adw-gtk3-dark' && gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface color-scheme 'prefer-dark'

Revert to GNOME's default theme:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme 'Adwaita' && gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface color-scheme 'default'

Installation from source

This will install the latest version from the main branch. Use this installation method if you want to contribute and help testing the theme.

See CONTRIBUTING.md for the instructions.

## Customizing If you want to change your accent color for most applications in GNOME 47 or later, then you can use the small cli program [accent-color-change](https://github.com/lassekongo83/adw-colors/tree/main/accent-color-change). ![adw-gtk3-customized](preview-customized.png?raw=true) ^{*Wallpaper: [here](https://i.imgur.com/ZbyNlmh.png) | Customization: [Peninsula-dark](https://github.com/lassekongo83/adw-colors/blob/main/themes/Peninsula-dark/gtk.css)*}

Adw-gtk3 and libadwaita can be customized with GTK named colors. See adw-colors for more info.

Note: GTK3 doesn't support the accent color feature introduced in GNOME 47. Only libadwaita does.
