#Development Installation
It's easy to make your own adjustments to this theme. This theme uses sass, and gulpjs, so you'll need to have both of those installed. Once you have sass and gulp running, go to the theme root and run npm install
. Then, you can run gulp sass
to compile the theme's sass, or gulp default
to watch your updates to /sass/*.scss
files and compile the theme as you save.
#Sass
All scss files are found in the /sass
directory. The /sass/gnome-shell.scss
file gets compiled directly to /css/gnome-shell.css
, where it is read by gnome shell. There are individual .scss files for each component within gnome shell. The /sass/variables.scss
file contains all color, and spacing values for the theme.
#Loading Changes
When you make a change to the theme, you can easily load the changes into gnome-shell by pressing Alt+f2
. In the command box, type rt``, and press enter. This will reload the theme. If you would like to restart gnome-shell, type
r``` into the box, or simply log in, and log out.
