It is based on the default theme with a few modifications:\n\n*   Flat colors instead of gradients\n*   Higher panel\n*   No shadows\n\n\n## Getting Started\n\n1. Clone this repository\n\n2. Install dependencies\n\n```sh\nnpm install\n```\n\n3. Create a symlink to this theme in *~/.themes* (the .themes folder has to exist in the home directory of the current user!)\n\n```sh\nnpm run link\n```\n\n4. Compile the SASS to CSS\n\n```sh\nnpm run build\n```\n\n5: (Re)load the theme in Cinnamon\n\n```sh\nnpm run reload\n```\n\n## Customizing\n\n### Changing colors, borders and fonts\n\nThe default values for colors, borders and fonts are configured in `sass/base/variables.scss`.\n\nYou can override these values with your own in `sass/custom-variables.scss`.\n\n### Main variables\n\nBasics\n\n*   $base-color: Used for backgrounds\n*   $base-accent-color: Used for borders and hover overlays\n*   $base-accent-strength: Opacity for accents (0-1)\n\nFonts\n\n*   $font-family\n*   $font-size\n*   $font-size-large\n*   $font-size-small\n\nColors (default values depend on $base... variables)\n\n*   $color-text\n*   $color-background\n*   $color-border\n*   $color-hover\n*   $color-active\n*   $color-separator\n*   $color-disabled\n*   $color-highlight\n\nBorders\n\n*   $border-radius\n*   $border-width\n*   $border: Complete border definition\n\nOther\n\n*   $transition-duration\n\nThe variables for different applets and components usually inherit the values from the base variables. Only override them if you want them to be different from the base value.\n\n\n### Changing the base theme\n\nThis theme is based on the default Cinnamon theme, but you can use a different base theme instead.\n\nReplace the contents of `sass/base/original-theme.scss` with those of `cinnamon.css` from the base theme you want to use. \n\n\u003e **Note:** Paths to assets have to be relative to the `cinnamon` directory!\n\nIf you want to switch to the base theme completely for certain components or applets, just remove the relevant `@import` statement from the main `cinnamon.scss` file.\n\n### Adding custom rules\n\nCustom rules can be added in the file `sass/custom-rules.scss`.\n\n\n## Tips \u0026 Tricks\n\nFor continuous development, the following command automatically builds and reloads the theme when files have been changed:\n\n```sh\nnpm run watch\n```\n\n## Examples\n\n### Ubuntu\n\n```scss\n$base-color: #5E2750;\n$base-accent-color: #E95420;\n$base-accent-strength: 0.4;\n$font-family: Ubuntu;\n$border-width: 0px;\n```\n\n![Example Ubuntu](assets/screenshot-ubuntu.png)\n\n### Windows 10\n\n```scss\n$base-color: #000;\n$base-accent-strength: 0.4;\n$border-radius: 0px;\n$border-width: 0px;\n```\n\n![Example Windows 10](assets/screenshot-win10.png)\n\n## Credits\n\n*   Default Cinnamon theme from [linuxmint/Cinnamon](https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon)\n*   Inspiration and snippets from [zagortenay333/zukitwo-cinnamon](https://github.com/zagortenay333/zukitwo-cinnamon)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fkryops%2Fcustomizable-cinnamon-theme","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fkryops%2Fcustomizable-cinnamon-theme","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fkryops%2Fcustomizable-cinnamon-theme/lists"}
