ATTENTION: I started using Colloid instead of this, check it out!
A simple, modern and elegant grayscale theme for GTK+ desktops.
I currently use this as a personal install script to quickly setup a consistent GNU/Linux look and feel alongside my dot-files and vim-settings, primarily using gnome-shell as the DE.
- A material design based grayscale interface, shell and gdm theme
- Simple, solid cursor default
- Rich, layered icon sets
- Beautiful background, grub theme, and lock screen
- Console and DE font configs
- Extra config files for Qt5 theme mapping, setting gdm cursor, etc
The interface and gnome-shell theme uses Materia.
Colour palette was inspired by Vimix.
Uses the DMZ cursor.
Primarily uses the Vertex icon set with fallback to the Paper icon set.
The main background.jpg image is a grayscale version of the Jet in Carina Nebula background.
- Term font: Inconsolata
- Desktop font: DejaVu Sans
Based on Manjaro's grub-theme but modded to have a simple grayscale style with a different background image.
Some extensions I use to get Gnome even more customized.
- user-themes (installed by
install.sh
) - vitals
- activities-configurator (start icons can be found in
/usr/share/icons/mako/places/symbolic/start-here-*.png
) - always-indicator
- kstatus-notifier-item/appindicator-support
- alternate-tab
- dash-to-dock
- caffeine-ng or gnome-shell-extension-caffeine
- remove-dropdown-arrows
- remove-alt-tab-delay
- no-annoyance
- disable-workspace-switcher-popup
- applications-menu
- sound-and-input-device-chooser
- big-avatar
- Arch/Manjaro
- Fedora/CentOS
- Ubuntu/Debian
- openSUSE (need to install gnome-extension-user-theme manually)
- macOS (just the fonts)
- glib based DE such as gnome-shell or Unity (limited support on DEs like XFCE, etc)
- Xorg (gnome-shell extensions + Wayland not 100%)
$ git clone git@github.com:brentlintner/mako.git ~/.mako
$ cd ~/.mako
$ ./install.sh
$ sudo reboot
Note: On OSes without sudo
it might be way less annoying to just run install.sh
as root.
$ cd ~/.mako
$ ./install.sh --revert
$ sudo reboot
Note: still leaves various system packages installed/set (ex: fonts).
