Cherry KDE
Clean, Flat, Δ Theme for Plasma Desktop
Cherry is a theme inspired by Δ (delta) battlesuit from Honkai Impact 3.
This theme consist of several components including :
- aurorae themes
- konsole and kitty colorscheme
- kvantum theme
- plasma colorscheme
- plasma desktop theme
- splash screen
- wallpaper
## Installation
> Note: Due to the amount of variants on this theme, I decide to give up on
> publishing this theme to the store.kde.org
- Arch Linux (AUR)
- [cherry-kde-git](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/cherry-kde-git)
- [kvantum-theme-cherry-git](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kvantum-theme-cherry-git)
- GitHub
```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/nullxception/cherry-kde.git
$ cd cherry-kde
$ ./install.sh
```
This theme uses [**Kvantum engine**](https://github.com/tsujan/Kvantum) for it's Application style.
So in order to completely apply this theme, you have to set the theme on kvantum:
**From terminal**
```bash
# available theme name: cherry, cherry-solid, cherry-midnight, and cherry-midnight-solid
kvantummanager --set
```
**From Kvantum Manager GUI**
Open **Kvantum Manager**, then select the theme on **Change/Delete Theme** section.
## Recommendation
**Terminal Emulator**
Cherry theme (non-solid variant) has background opacity set to 95%, you can match your term config for nicer setup.
**Kitty Terminal**
Cherry theme is available on official [kitty-themes repository](https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty-themes). You can run themes kitten to select and apply it.
```bash
# Open kitty theme selection
# --cache-age=0 to force update theme index
kitty +kitten themes --cache-age=0
# or apply theme directly by passing the theme name
kitty +kitten themes "Cherry Midnight"
```
### Layouts
If you use in-built layout (`Global Theme > Use desktop layout from theme`), it's recommended to have several additional applet before for better setup :
- [Better Inline Clock](https://store.kde.org/p/1245902/)
- [Window Appmenu Applet](https://store.kde.org/p/1274975/)
- [Window Title Applet](https://store.kde.org/p/1274218/)
After installing all of them, you can just re-apply the Global Theme to reload layout.
Also, it's recommended that using Latte Dock for your task manager to get better setup!
