Adapta KDE - This is a port of the popular GTK theme Adapta for Plasma 5 desktop with a few additions and extras.

In this repository you'll find:

• Aurorae Theme
• Konsole Color Schemes
• Kvantum Themes
• Plasma Color Schemes
• Plasma Desktop Theme
• Plasma Look-and-Feel Settings
• Wallpaper
• Yakuake Skins

Note: probably not all of these Themes will be kept alive.

Recommendations

• For better looking please use this pack with Kvantum engine.

  Run kvantummanager to choose and apply Adapta or Adapta Nokto theme.

• Install Papirus-Adapta icon theme for a more consistent and beautiful experience.

• Set tree menu view for systemsettings

• On systemsettings set Noto Sans font for title, menu and toolbar

• For better looking use toolbar icons without text with 16px size (for Papirus themes)

Hacks for small screen resolution

• Install widgets Active Window Control & Application Menu and move to panel
• Disable window buttons & titlebar on decoration:

open rc-file on aurorae theme and set:

ButtonHeight=0
ButtonWidth=0
TitleHeight=0
TitleEdgeTop=0

• Use GTK3-noCSD script

Known issues

• On some propietary video drivers Aurorae have wrong rendering by default with Adapta theme. See more info here
• Plasma 5.27+ breaks some Aurorae Themes. Should be fixed with 5.27.5
• fractional scaling results in blurry decorations, Breeze is the only one working normally
