+# Desolate GTK
+
+Another customizable not-so-colorful GTK theme.

+
+## Instalation
+
+1. Clone the repository
+```sh
+cd ~/.themes
+git clone https://github.com/He4eT/desolate-GTK.git Desolate
+```
+2. Apply the theme in any way you like. You can use `lxappearance`, for example.
+
+Additionally, you might need to copy the contents of `~/.config/gtk-3.0/` to `~/.config/gtk-4.0/`, or set the `GTK_THEME` environment variable in your ~/.profile file:
+```
+export GTK_THEME=Desolate
+```
+
+## Customisation
+
+You could change theme colors in `general/gtk-colors.css`:
+```
+@define-color gtk_base_color #073642;
+@define-color gtk_fg_color #93a1a1;
+@define-color gtk_selection_color #b58900;
+```
