Adwaita Colors enhances the Adwaita icon theme by integrating GNOME’s accent color feature, introduced in GNOME 47. This project ensures that your Adwaita icons reflect the same accent color as your GNOME theme, instead of the default blue, for a more cohesive and customized look.
GNOME 47 introduced a "color accent" feature to allow users to select a system-wide accent color. However, the default Adwaita icon theme does not automatically adapt to this accent color, leaving the icons in the default blue. Adwaita Colors fixes this by applying your chosen accent color to the icons.
In addition, I added MoreWaita icon folders and made them themed to allow for more extensive customization.
This theme will not work properly without the original Adwaita icon theme.
Clone the repository to your local machine:
git clone https://github.com/dpejoh/Adwaita-colors
cd Adwaita-colors
To install the icons globally, simply run:
sudo ./setup -i
For removing the icon theme run:
sudo ./setup -u
For immutable distros like Fedora Silverblue, the global installation is different, use:
./setup -i
For removing the icon theme on immutable distros run:
./setup -u
[!NOTES]
You can also install the icon theme in the user directory without any problems, but for best compatibility with apps, it is recommended to install it system-wide.
Adwaita-colors no longer requires separate DEB, RPM, or AUR packages. Thanks to @fastrizwaan, the project now includes a unified
setup
script that simplifies both installation and uninstallation across all Linux distributions.
To install MoreWaita with Adwaita-colors:
- Ensure that MoreWaita is installed.
- Run
morewaita.sh
after cloning the repository with the following command:
./morewaita.sh
To automatically match your color accent with the Adwaita theme, you can install the "Auto Adwaita Colors" extension by @celiopy.
You can install the extension directly from GNOME Shell Extensions:
Or download the latest release from GitHub by running the following command:
wget https://github.com/celiopy/auto-adwaita-colors/releases/download/3.0/[email protected]
Install the extension using GNOME:
gnome-extensions install --force "[email protected]"
After installation, open the GNOME Extensions Manager and enable the extension from there.
