## Install

            

            
            

                
                9
                +
                

            

            
            

                
                10
                +
                
Prebuilt stylesheets are checked in, so no build step is required:

            

            
            

                
                11
                +
                

            

            
            

                
                12
                +
                
```sh

            

            
            

                
                13
                +
                
git clone https://github.com/stevedylandev/darkmatter-linux.git

            

            
            

                
                14
                +
                
cd darkmatter-linux

            

            
            

                
                15
                +
                
sh src/install.sh   # copies into ~/.themes/Darkmatter (+ -hdpi/-xhdpi variants)

            

            
            

                
                16
                +
                
```

            

            
            

                
                17
                +
                

            

            
            

                
                18
                +
                
Then select `Darkmatter` as your GTK theme and window manager theme, e.g.:

            

            
            

                
                19
                +
                

            

            
            

                
                20
                +
                
```sh

            

            
            

                
                21
                +
                
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme Darkmatter   # GTK

            

            
            

                
                22
                +
                
xfwm4-tweaks-settings                                            # or via xfce4-appearance-settings / xfwm4-settings

            

            
            

                
                23
                +
                
```

            

            
            

                
                24
                +
                

            

            
            

                
                25
                +
                
`install.sh` only ships the GTK 3/4 stylesheets and xfwm4 decorations. Dunst and Rofi aren't app themes with a single install location, so copy them where each app looks for config:

            

            
            

                
                26
                +
                

            

            
            

                
                27
                +
                
```sh

            

            
            

                
                28
                +
                
cp dunst/dunstrc ~/.config/dunst/dunstrc

            

            
            

                
                29
                +
                
cp rofi/darkmatter.rasi ~/.config/rofi/darkmatter.rasi

            

            
            

                
                30
                +
                
```

            

            
            

                
                31
