## Setup Tutorial
### Libadwaita applications
No additional setup is required for native Libadwaita applications.
2022-07-20 12:18:05 +00:00
For Flatpak Libadwaita applications, you need to override their permissions:
2022-07-20 12:41:03 +00:00
- Run `sudo flatpak override --filesystem=xdg-config/gtk-4.0` or
- Use [Flatseal ](https://github.com/tchx84/Flatseal ) and adding `xdg-config/gtk-4.0` to **Other files** in the **Filesystem** section of **All Applications**
2022-07-18 14:11:46 +00:00
### Vanilla GTK 4 applications
Use [this guide ](https://github.com/lassekongo83/adw-gtk3/blob/main/gtk4.md ) to theme vanilla GTK 4 applications.
### GTK 3 applications
- Install and apply the [adw-gtk3 ](https://github.com/lassekongo83/adw-gtk3#readme ) theme (don't forget to install the Flatpak package!)
2022-07-20 12:21:15 +00:00
