Paper Theme

Paper is a modern desktop theme suite. Its design is mostly flat with a minimal use of shadows for depth.

###Preamble

Paper has been developed primarily with modern GTK3 (GNOME-based) desktop environments in mind, legacy-toolkit and GTK2 environments will not provide an ideal experience, as much of the visual design relies on modern GTK3+ widgets.

Paper is distributed under the terms the GNU General Public License (GNU GPL v.3).

###Getting the Source

The source for Paper GTK3 Theme can be found here.

Alternatively, you can clone the latest version its git repository:

git clone https://github.com/snwh/paper-gtk-theme.git

###Using the Source

There are scripts to simplify the rendering process;to run them (and edit icons) you will need:

  • inkscape
  • python3

To render new assets from their source SVG files, run the following:

./render-gtk3-assets.py
./render-gtk3-assets-hidpi.py
./render-gnome-shell-assets.py
./render-wm-assets.py

If scripts are throwing errors, they may not be executable, try:

chmod +x *

Each script will look in the asset source directories (../src/*) and render the respective assets (provided there are changes) to the appropriate locations.
