Give Your Linux Desktop a Stunning Makeover With Xenlism Themes
|
||
============================================================
|
||
|
||
|
||
_Brief: Xenlism theme pack provides an aesthetically pleasing GTK theme, colorful icons, and minimalist wallpapers to transform your Linux desktop into an eye-catching setup._
|
||
|
||
It’s not every day that I dedicate an entire article to a theme unless I find something really awesome. I used to cover themes and icons regularly. But lately, I preferred having lists of [best GTK themes][6] and icon themes. This is more convenient for me and for you as well as you get to see many beautiful themes in one place.
|
||
|
||
After [Pop OS theme][7] suit, Xenlism is another theme that has left me awestruck by its look.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Xenlism GTK theme is based on the Arc theme, an inspiration behind so many themes these days. The GTK theme provides Windows buttons similar to macOS which I neither like nor dislike. The GTK theme has a flat, minimalist layout and I like that.
|
||
|
||
There are two icon themes in the Xenlism suite. Xenlism Wildfire is an old one and had already made to our list of [best icon themes][8].

||

Xenlsim Storm is the relatively new icon theme but is equally beautiful.

Xenlism themes are open source under GPL license.
|
||
|
||
### How to install Xenlism theme pack on Ubuntu 18.04
|
||
|
||
Xenlism dev provides an easier way of installing the theme pack through a PPA. Though the PPA is available for Ubuntu 16.04, I found the GTK theme wasn’t working with Unity. It works fine with the GNOME desktop in Ubuntu 18.04.
|
||
|
||
Open a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and use the following commands one by one:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xenatt/xenlism
|
||
sudo apt update
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This PPA offers four packages:
|
||
|
||
* xenlism-finewalls: for a set of wallpapers that will be available directly in the wallpaper section of Ubuntu. One of the wallpapers has been used in the screenshot.
|
||
|
||
* xenlism-minimalism-theme: GTK theme
|
||
|
||
* xenlism-storm: an icon theme (see previous screenshots)
|
||
|
||
* xenlism-wildfire-icon-theme: another icon theme with several color variants (folder colors get changed in the variants)
|
||
|
||
You can decide on your own what theme component you want to install. Personally, I don’t see any harm in installing all the components.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
sudo apt install xenlism-minimalism-theme xenlism-storm-icon-theme xenlism-wildfire-icon-theme xenlism-finewalls
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You can use GNOME Tweaks for changing the theme and icons. If you are not familiar with the procedure already, I suggest reading this tutorial to learn [how to install themes in Ubuntu 18.04 GNOME][9].
|
||
|
||
### Getting Xenlism themes in other Linux distributions
|
||
|
||
You can install Xenlism themes on other Linux distributions as well. Installation instructions for various Linux distributions can be found on its website:

||
### What do you think?
|
||
|
||
I know not everyone would agree with me but I loved this theme. I think you are going to see the glimpse of Xenlism theme in the screenshots in future tutorials on It’s FOSS.
