To improve the appearance of Chrome, you can install our Chrome extensions as follows:
- Open the
/usr/share/themes/Materia<-variant>/chrome
folder in your file manager. - Drag and drop the
.crx
files into the Chrome's Extensions page (chrome:https://extensions
).
You can change the GDM (lock/login screen) theme by replacing the default GNOME Shell theme.
See INSTALL_GDM_THEME.md
for details.
Materia can be customized with GUI application, oomox theme designer.
Materia also allows you to change the color scheme relatively easily in other ways. See HACKING.md
for details.
