|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
### 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!)
|
||
- For Flatpak applications, you need to override their permissions:
|

## 🌱️ Gradience, [stopthemingmy.app](https://stopthemingmy.app) and Adwaita Developers
|
||
|
||
Gradience Team is not against [stopthemingmy.app](https://stopthemingmy.app) and Adwaita Developers idea, Gradience is a tool for tinkers that want to theme their desktops at their liking, and not a tool for distributions to change theme in them by default, Gradience Team agrees with importance of unified look of Adwaita to make sure that all apps work right and Developers have unified and stable tool for creating their apps.
