Everforest GTK Theme

A GTK theme based on the colours of Sainnhe's great theme: Everforest for Neovim
the VinceLiuice's Awesome GTK Themes and the creativity of Gusbemacbe's: Suru Plus Icon Theme.

Everforest

Note

The theme is more focused on the Gnome Desktop, but supports Cinnamon, XFCE, Mate, etc. with generic styles. It's great to combine in your TWMs like: XmonadWM, AwesomeWM, BSPWM, etc...

⚙️ Requirements

Before installing the themes, make sure to install the following necessary packages: sassc murrine-engine and gnome-themes-extra packages for the correct rendering of themes.

Here are some commands to install on some distributions.

  • On Fedora run:
 sudo dnf install gtk-murrine-engine
  • On OpenSUSE run:
 sudo zypper install gtk2-engine-murrine
  • On Arch run:
sudo pacman -S gtk-engine-murrine
  • On Debian and derivatives run:
sudo apt install gtk2-engines-murrine

📁 Manual Installation

  • Download the themes packs and extract them
  • Move the extracted files to the following paths:
    • For GTK3: ~/.themes In this path you must move the entire theme folder.
    • For GTK4: ~/.config/gtk-4.0 The files to move to this path can be found inside the theme directory in the gtk-4.0 folder, copy only the assets, gtk.css and gtk-dark.css files or create a symlinks.

🔨 Applying the Theme

  • For GTK3, apply themes from Gnome Tweaks, Refine or Tuner
  • For GTK4 applications it is only necessary to have moved the assets, gtk.css and gtk-dark.css files to the ~/.config/gtk-4.0 path, and if you notice that the theme has not been applied, just close and reopen the application.

📦 Flatpak Compatibility

  • Override flatpak themes to ~/.themes:
sudo flatpak override --filesystem=$HOME/.themes
  • Override flatpak icons to ~/.icons:
sudo flatpak override --filesystem=$HOME/.icons
  • Override flatpak themes to ~/.config/gtk-4.0 locally:
flatpak override --user --filesystem=xdg-config/gtk-4.0
  • Override flatpak themes to ~/.config/gtk-4.0 globally:
sudo flatpak override --filesystem=xdg-config/gtk-4.0

Tip

💡 Use stylepak for easier Flatpak theming.
