This article shows you how to give the GNOME 42 desktop a more polished look. The GNOME 42 desktop environment is available with the recently released Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and Fedora 36. + +Before you read further, here’s how it looks with a side by side comparison (before and after). + +![GNOME before customisation][1] + +![GNOME after customisation][2] + +I am going to divide this tutorial into two sections. + +The first section deals with setting up and installing required packages. And second, how to apply various settings to get your desired look. + +This tutorial was mainly tested on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. However, it should work in other variants of Ubuntu and Fedora. + +### Customize GNOME 42 with a Polished Look + +#### Setup + +- First, enable your system for Flatpak because we need to install the Extension Manager to download some required GNOME Shell extensions for this tutorial. + +- So, to do that, open up a terminal and run the following commands. + +``` +sudo apt install flatpak gnome-software-plugin-flatpakflatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo +``` + +- Reboot the computer once done. + +- Then run the following command from the terminal to install the Extensions Manager app to download GNOME Shell Extensions. + +``` +flatpak install flathub com.mattjakeman.ExtensionManager +``` + +- Open the Extension Manager application and install two extensions. The first one is **Floating Dock** which features a super cool dock which you can move around anywhere on your desktop. Second, install the **User themes** extensions to help you install the external GTK themes in your Ubuntu Linux. + +![User Themes Extension][3] + +User Themes Extension + +![Floating Dock Extension][4] + +Floating Dock Extension + +- Secondly, install the [Materia Theme][5] using the below commands. You have to build it as it doesn’t have any executable. Run the following commands in sequence in Ubuntu to install. + +``` +git clone https://github.com/ckissane/materia-theme-transparent.gitcd materia-theme-transparentmeson _buildmeson install -C _build +``` + +- Additionally, download the [Kora Icon theme][6] from the below link. After downloading, extract the files and copy the below four folders to `/home//.icons` path. Create the .icons folder if it is not present. + +[Download Kora Icon Theme][7] + +![Kora Icon Theme][8] + +Kora Icon Theme + +- Besides the above changes, download the awesome Bibata cursor theme from the below link. After download, extract and copy the folders to the same `/home//.icons` folder. + +[Download Bibata Cursor Theme][9] + +- In addition to the above, if you want a nice font which goes with the above themes, [download Robot font][10] from Google Fonts and copy them to `/home//.fonts` folder. + +- Finally, restart your system once again. + +#### Configuration + +- Open the Extension Manager, enable the Floating Dock and User Themes, and disable the Ubuntu Dock. + +![Changes to Extensions][11] + +Changes to Extensions + +- In addition, open the Floating dock settings and make the following changes. + +![Floating Dock Settings][12] + +Floating Dock Settings + +- Cursor: Bibata-Original-Ice +- Shell Theme: Materia +- Icon: Kora + +- Furthermore, open the [GNOME Tweak Tool][13], and go to the Appearance tab. Set the followings. + +- Other than that, you may also want to change the font. To do that, go to the Fonts tab and change the document and interface to Robot 10pt. + +- Alternatively, you can also change the accent colour and style from Settings which comes by default with Ubuntu 22.04. + +- Finally, download a nice wallpaper as per your preference. For this tutorial, I have downloaded a sample wallpaper from [here][14]. + +- If all goes well, you should have a nice desktop, as shown below. + +![Customize GNOME 42 - Final Look][15] + +Customize GNOME 42 – Final Look + +Enjoy a polished GNOME 42.
