Installation

While it would be possible to compile and install the whole shell, it is only necessary to compile the CSS code for it. This requires the sass compiler to be installed.

  1. Clone the data/theme directory to your local machine.
  2. Run the compiler to compile the Sass code to a single CSS file
sassc -M  data/theme/gnome-shell.scss gnome-shell.css
  1. Create a new shell theme in in your themes directory (e.g. ~/.themes) with a gnome-shell and a gnome-shell/assets directory
  2. Move the svg files into the asset dierectory and the gnome-shell.css into gnome-shell.
  3. Apply the theme via Tweaks.
