Getting Started

1. Run the Flatpak override commands. This ensures Flatpak applications are themed accordingly. See Flatpak Overrides below for details.

2. Change the system theme. Many Linux distributions set a custom GTK theme by default. To prevent conflicts, change the application theme to the default or Adwaita.

3. Automatic switching. Rewaita runs in the background to switch between light/dark mode and accent color changes. This can be disabled in preferences.

4. Found a bug or want to contribute? Open an issue or pull request in the upstream repository. See Get Involved for details.
