Gradience is a GTK4/Libadwaita desktop application for customizing the look of Adwaita, allowing users to change any color of the theme and restyle Libadwaita apps and the adw-gtk3 theme. It supports applying Material 3 color schemes from wallpapers, sharing and using community presets, advanced CSS tweaks, and plugin-based extensibility.

Use cases

  • customize adwaita theme colors on gnome
  • change the colors of libadwaita gtk4 apps
  • apply a material 3 color scheme generated from my wallpaper
  • install and share gtk theme presets
  • edit the adw-gtk3 theme with a gui instead of hand-written css
  • tweak gnome app styling with custom css
  • make gnome apps match my wallpaper palette

When to choose

  • You want to recolor Libadwaita/GTK4 applications and the adw-gtk3 theme without manually editing CSS files
  • You want to generate and apply a Material 3 color scheme from your wallpaper
  • You want to try community-made theme presets or share your own
  • You need advanced customization via custom CSS overrides in a friendly GUI

When to avoid

  • You need actively maintained software - the project was archived on June 29, 2024 and is looking for new maintainers
  • You want to theme non-GTK toolkits such as Qt or Electron apps
  • You require support for newer GNOME/Libadwaita versions beyond the last 2024 release
  • You follow the stop-theming-apps guidance and prefer not to override Libadwaita styling
