Description: The Equilux Theme provides a couple of full-dark, neutral-gray theme for GNOME/GTK+ based desktop environments. It supports GTK+ 3, GTK+ 2, GNOME Shell, Budgie, MATE, Unity, LightDM, GDM, Chrome theme, etc.
It is not designed to be fancy, but to be useful for a few specific goals:
- Minimize eye strain: when you pass many hours in front of the screen or you are hyper-sensitive to light, saturation and contrast, your eyes will benefit from a dull UI
- Avoid disrupting your circadian rhythms: a neutral color-cast-free UI helps your body to produce enough melatonin at night time and sleep better, working nicely with software like f.lux, redshift, NightLight, ...
- Professional use in image editing, graphic design, 3D rendering: in that fields any color cast or excessive contrast, brightness or darkness introduced by the UI would affect the overall perception of the color and balance of the images
- You may just like it: even if the style is not the main goal, many people find that its very clean and minimalistic UI looks cool and professional
I like this theme but for some reason, the Cinnamon theme cause very poor performance on my system, even dragging a window is really slow, I only have this problem with certain themes. I am trying to find out what the problem is.
That's a problem with the new 3.34 shell. Here is a temporary workaround till when I will find the time to push another version. https://github.com/ddnexus/equilux-theme/issues/30
I am sorry. I am new on Linux ubuntu. I downlaoded the theme and extracted it. I came so far. But now I am struggling with the installation. Kindly, would some be able to help me. I am using a dell g5/15 with ubuntu 18.10
Thank you very much for your answer. I found out where to find the files. My Problem now is, that I have got no rights to copy file into the theme order. How do i get the rights, please. As I tried yesterday, the complete system crashed.
Thank you ver much for your anwer. For ubuntu 18.10 the right command sudo su is working I am still struggling finding out a good theme for visually impaired people like me. It would be great to find a solution, which is easy to find in the store and it works. I would like learning knowing how to design a theme, which is easy hold in grey/yellow and can be chanced to high contrast like lightgrey/black.

When user shell is eneabled, the font color of the notification panel and the calendar is black. Hence, its hadly visible. It is visible as I hover.
