Description: A GNOME-Shell - Dark Mode Theme - Based on the Official Color Pallet Created by Ethan Schoonover.
Choose from the official Blue, Cyan, Green, Magenta, Orange, Red, and Violet flavors.
Solarized-COLORS-Iconpack is also available, on this site in a separate package, to support Solarized-Dark-GNOME-Shell-2020. Please follow this link to check it out: https://www.opendesktop.org/p/1309239/
Brought back to the GUI by popular demand, Solarized-Dark - as originally created by Ethan Schoonover - is the highly valued color scheme for code editors and terminal emulators. Delivering seven, dark-mode, hue choices for the GNOME-Shell this GUI-centric theme strictly adheres to Ethan Schoonover's original color scheme, which has been published for many major applications, with some including the scheme pre-installed. Coders and GUI users, alike, know that - once you try Solarized-Dark - it is hard to go back to anything else.
In His Own Words:
"Solarized is a sixteen color palette (eight monotones, eight accent colors) designed for use with terminal and gui applications. It has several unique properties. I designed this colorscheme with both precise CIELAB lightness relationships and a refined set of hues based on fixed color wheel relationships. It has been tested extensively in real world use on color calibrated displays (as well as uncalibrated/intentionally miscalibrated displays) and in a variety of lighting conditions." https://ethanschoonover.com/solarized/
The GNOME-Shell theme represents a careful blending of Material and modernized Numix elements, with an overlay centered on one of seven hues from the original standard Solarized-Dark scheme, created by Ethan Schoonover.
Manual Installation Is Easy: 1) Extract the "tar.xz" file into your "~/.themes/" folder - to install for current user only - or into the "/usr/share/themes/" folder - for the theme to be applied globally. 2) Use the GNOME Tweak Tool or an equivalent app to enable it for your desktop.
Logging out and then logging back in may be necessary on some operating systems, to fully implement themes.
Roboto and Roboto-Medium are the UI fonts, Midnight Lizard Solarized extension (for Chrome & FF) is the browser add-on shown in the screenshots.Last changelog:
07-11-20: Version 2.1.7
This update modifies the Blue flavor variant. Here, both the standard and 3.36 versions had the Blue hue applied to GS App-Grid text, search window text and selection text, control arm element, and page selector. As well, the controller button text now alternates between blue and bold white text. This enhancement has already been performed on some flavors, or will, carry over to the other flavor variants during future updates. Commit: 667234
