# adw-gtk3
An unofficial GTK3 port of [libadwaita](https://gnome.pages.gitlab.gnome.org/libadwaita/).
*This port does not claim to be a 100% look-a-like of libadwaita. There are some limitations to what GTK3 can do.*
| Light theme | Dark theme |

## How to install
### Tarball
1. Go to the [releases](https://github.com/lassekongo83/adw-gtk3/releases) section and download the latest `tar.xz` file.
2. Extract the file to `~/.local/share/themes/` (or `/usr/share/themes` if you want to install it for all users.)
**Note:** Do not extract it to multiple locations. Only use one path.
3. If you use flatpak applications it's recommended to install the flatpak themes. From a terminal run:
```bash
flatpak install org.gtk.Gtk3theme.adw-gtk3 org.gtk.Gtk3theme.adw-gtk3-dark
```
**Note:** [Flatpak GTK4 applications can't be styled by the theme.](https://github.com/lassekongo83/adw-gtk3/issues/235)
You can then enable adw-gtk3 in the application `gnome-tweaks`. (Some applications may require a relog.)
**If you use the dark theme** you'll also need to enable the dark appearance in `gnome-control-center`.
Alternatively you can set the theme with your terminal:
Change the theme to adw-gtk3 light:
```bash
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme 'adw-gtk3' && gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface color-scheme 'default'
```
Change the theme to adw-gtk3-dark:
```bash
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme 'adw-gtk3-dark' && gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface color-scheme 'prefer-dark'
```
Revert to GNOME's default theme:
```bash
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme 'Adwaita' && gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface color-scheme 'default'
```

### Installation from source

See [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/lassekongo83/adw-gtk3/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md) for the instructions.
## Customizing
*Wallpaper: [here](https://i.imgur.com/ZbyNlmh.png) | Customization: [Peninsula-dark](https://github.com/lassekongo83/adw-colors/blob/main/themes/Peninsula-dark/gtk.css)*
Adw-gtk3 and libadwaita can be customized with GTK named colors. See [adw-colors](https://github.com/lassekongo83/adw-colors) for more info.
Note: GTK3 doesn't support the accent color feature introduced in GNOME 47. Only libadwaita does.
