Install with the one command on jadeshell.app. Don't download these files by hand.

wget -qO- https://jadeshell.app/install | bash

Already on 0.9.0? Run the same command: it updates Jade Shell in under a minute. If Update in the top bar fails, use the command instead.

What's new

  • A faster install. The package is 3.5 MB instead of 10 MB, setup takes seconds instead of minutes (theme pictures download in the background), and on a slow line a fresh install now reaches a set-up desktop in under a minute instead of about eight.
  • Works on a desktop in daily use. The installer waits while the Software app or automatic updates are busy, continues a download that was cut off, and doesn't download or reinstall what is already there.
  • Plain words everywhere. The installer, setup and restore say what they do and what to do next, without technical messages; a failure shows one sentence about the cause.
  • Text and QR code reading is optional, asked once at the start.
  • Your dock stays until you log out; then Jade Shell's dock takes its place.
  • Removing Jade Shell puts your desktop back exactly, including Ubuntu's own dock, and clears Jade Shell's own files.
  • Updates from the top bar say what they're doing and wait for other updates to finish.
  • Your Starship, Alacritty and VS Code settings keep their own colors and comments when you switch themes.
  • The Welcome page shows each theme's colors until its picture arrives.
