A GTK+ theme for Pop!_OS

Required Components

---

Pop supports Gtk+ 3.22.x

* Gtk+-3.0             >= 3.22
* Gtk+-2.0             >= 2.24.30
* gtk2-engines-pixbuf  >= 2.24.30

Recommendations

• For GTK, use icons alongside Pop Icon Theme
• For fonts, use:

Window Titles: Fira Sans SemiBold 10

Interface: Fira Sans Book 10

Documents: Roboto Slab Regular 11

Monospace: Fira Mono Regular 11

Installation

Pop is intended to be installed through the package manager. Packages for Pop are available in PPA:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:system76/pop
sudo apt update
sudo apt install pop-theme

It's recommended to use the pop-theme metapackage, as this will pull in all components of the look. However, individual components can be installed separately, e.g:

sudo apt install pop-gtk-theme

It's also recommended to restart the GNOME Shell after applying the theme of your choice.

Enter the Shell's command launcher

Alt + F2

This will restart the Shell after you hit Enter

r

Installation from Git Source

---

This is the recommended method for users who aren't on Pop.

Note: You must have sassc installed in order to build Pop. Users of 17.04 or later can all build-dependencies using:

sudo apt install sassc meson libglib2.0-dev 

For making modifications to assets, you will additionally need these two:

sudo apt install inkscape optipng

1. If previous versions were installed/existed, remove them first.

sudo apt remove pop-gtk-theme
sudo rm -rf /usr/share/themes/Pop*
rm -rf ~/.local/share/themes/Pop*
rm -rf ~/.themes/Pop*

2. Clone the repository.

git clone https://github.com/pop-os/gtk-theme.git
cd gtk-theme

3. Generate the theme files.

meson build && cd build
ninja

4. Install the theme.

ninja install

Rebuilding after modifications:

You shouldn't need to rebuild the entire theme after modifications. If you make changes to any GTK3 or GTK2 assets, delete the old rendered copies and use the render-assets.sh script to regenerate those with new ones with your modifications.

TODO

• Prepare for Steam theming (priority: Low)
