# Slickgnome

Turn newly installed Ubuntu gnome desktop into pretty, slick,

ready to work one with night light and other

slick gnome settings already configured.

## FROM

![before picture](./docs/from.png)

## TO

![after picture](./docs/to.png)

## HOW

Run this script in your terminal to change gnome's gsettings to make

it prettier and more slick on Ubuntu. No manual download or cloning required.

It just works.

```bash

wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/monoira/slickgnome/main/gnome_settings.sh | bash

```

### THIS WILL

- Setup night-light settings.

- Setup dash-to-dock settings.

- Make dash-to-dock horizontal.

- Hide the trash from dash-to-dock.

- Hide home directory on desktop.

- Show apps from current workspace only.

- Reduce size of desktop icons to small since

  large icons are way to big and ugly.

- Etc.

You can see what more it changes by reading the script itself at

[gnome_settings.sh](./gnome_settings.sh)
