Theme

General

Walker is built using of [GTK4](https://docs.gtk.org/gtk4/). Refer to the [GTK4 Documentation](https://docs.gtk.org/gtk4/) for specific information.

Themes

Themes are built out of the following building-blocks:

• style.css

• layout.xml

• keybind.xml

• preview.xml

• item_<provider>.xml

You don't have to create every file if you want to create a custom theme, only the ones you want to change. These files should be placed in ~/.config/walker/themes/<THEME>\

To set the general theme for Walker, change theme = "<THEME>" in your config.toml. You can tell Walker to use a different theme, by providing the -t/--theme flag.

Important

Changing the style.css does NOT require a restart of Walker, while changing any *.xml file does.
