Kvantum Setup Guide

For Qt applications, Kvantum is used to apply themes. Here’s how to set up Kvantum with this theme collection:

Clone the Theme Collection

git clone https://github.com/harilvfs/themes

Change to the themes dir

cd themes/

Once the themes are in place, use the Kvantum Manager to select and apply the desired theme:

Open Kvantum Manager: You can launch it from your desktop environment or by running:

kvantummanager

Under the "Change/Delete Theme" tab, select the theme you want from the list and apply it.

Package Requirements

Depending on whether you're using X11 or Wayland, you’ll need to install specific packages to manage your themes.

For X11

To apply themes on X11-based systems, install the following packages:

  • lxappearance: A GTK theme switcher for X11 environments.
  • kvantum-qt5: A theme manager for Qt5 applications (use kvantum-qt6 for Qt6 applications).

Install Required Packages for X11:

sudo pacman -S lxappearance kvantum-qt5

If you’re using Qt6 applications:

sudo pacman -S kvantum-qt6

For Wayland

If you are using Wayland, you’ll need the following packages:

  • nwg-look: A GTK theme switcher for Wayland.
  • kvantum-qt5 or kvantum-qt6: For managing Qt applications under Wayland.

Install Required Packages for Wayland:

sudo pacman -S nwg-look kvantum-qt5

For Qt6 applications:

sudo pacman -S kvantum-qt6

Usage

Once the themes are installed and the required packages are set up, you can apply the themes as follows:

  • For X11: Use lxappearance to select and apply GTK themes, and kvantum for Qt themes.
  • For Wayland: Use nwg-look to apply GTK themes, and kvantum for Qt themes.

You can also manually configure your window manager or desktop environment to apply the themes by editing the relevant configuration files.
