Note MochaTheme only includes Gnome Shell Theme, using Catppuccin (Lavender) colorscheme
First, download or get files from the source:
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/lime-desu/MochaTheme.git ~/.local/share/themes/MochaThemeAssuming the MochaTheme repo is stored on ~/.local/share/themes/
~/.local/share/themes/or~/.themeswhichever you prefer
Then create a symbolic link and store it on the proper directory:
cd ~/.local/share/themes/MochaTheme && ln -sv $(pwd)/Mo* ../. # symlink all directories that begins with `Mo`Warning User Themes Extension is required.
- Command =
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.user-theme name '<value>' - Value =
MochaTheme-<number>,MonoTheme, andMonoThemeDark
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.user-theme name 'MochaTheme-4' # example using style4Note You can use this command for addding keybinding for changing style quickly, or even create a desktop application out of it.
- Install and open GNOME Tweaks
- Click on the Appearance tab
- Under "Shell", choose the desired style.
Since I suck at CSS, Expect some bugs that may need to update and to be fixed.
git -C ~/.local/share/themes/MochaTheme pull --rebaseSimply reverse the installation process
rm -r ~/.local/share/themes/{Mocha*,Mono}Theme* # delete the repo and it's symlinkNote For MonoTheme and GTK app see below instructions
Simple theme with nothing extra to use on a regular basis. Theme tested on Manjaro and Fedora.
The theme is still developing and it would be nice if you reported all the bugs in issues.

Gtk3 apps

Download theme here.
Move theme folders to ~/.themes
To install the Gtk4 theme move the contents of gtk4.0 to ~/.config/gtk4.0
To install themes on Flatpak apps use these commands:
sudo flatpak override --filesystem=$HOME/.themessudo flatpak override --env=GTK_THEME=MonoThemeor
sudo flatpak override --env=GTK_THEME=MonoThemeDarkIMPORTANT❗️ Take a snapshot of the system before use!
If you want the gnome-shell theme to extend to the lock and login screen, move the gnome-shell-theme.gresource file from gnome-shell folder to /usr/share/gnome-shell/ with a replacement and restart system with ALT+F2 and enter r for Xorg or reboot/log out for Wayland session.
Command:
sudo cp gnome-shell-theme.gresource /usr/share/gnome-shellI recommend saving the gresource file from the folder to a safe place beforehand, if will need to be returned. Go to /usr/share/gnome-shell and open terminal.
Example:
sudo cp gnome-shell-theme.gresource ~/DocumentsFirefox
This is a mix of Adwaita symbolic icons and new icons that we made together with my friend. Icons match and don't get out from the style of Adwaita icons.

To change the light or dark theme of Gtk3 apps and Gnome-shell use Gnome Tweaks or Night Theme Switcher (choose the MonoTheme for day and MonoThemeDark for night variant in the Themes tab and change the theme color by switching style in Settings > Appearance).
The dark and light appearance of Gtk4 is changed by renaming the desired file to gtk.css in .config/gtk4.0 or you can try the script I made for automatic theme switcher in gtk4 and gtk3/4 flatpak apps. Go to Night Theme Switcher and select Commands tab and paste this script.
Sunrise:
flatpak override --env=GTK_THEME=MonoTheme --user & cd ~/.config/gtk-4.0 ; mv gtk.css gtk2.css ; mv gtk-dark.css gtk.css ; mv gtk2.css gtk-dark.cssSunset:
flatpak override --env=GTK_THEME=MonoThemeDark --user & cd ~/.config/gtk-4.0 ; mv gtk.css gtk2.css ; mv gtk-dark.css gtk.css ; mv gtk2.css gtk-dark.cssThanks to this script, you can change the theme of apps by switching dark and light theme in the settings, but gtk4 and gtk4 flatpak apps will be updated only when the app window is reopened. If ALL the steps are completed correctly, then the theme color will change for ALL applications in the system, write your questions in issues.
To remove a theme, follow all the steps above in reverse order
