Nice and simple Xfce rice. Tested on Xfce 4.18 on Arch BTW.

Main things used for rice:

  • Colloid GTK Theme or adw-gtk3
  • Whisker Menu
  • Papirus Icon Theme
  • lightdm-slick-greeter

Tips:

  • It might be useful to install extra packages like xfce4-goodies, pavucontrol, lightdm-slick-greeter, gvfs, catfish. Refer to *.packages, which are examples of all the packages installed. Don't just blindly install all the packages there though.
  • Use gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface color-scheme prefer-dark to make GTK4 apps prefer dark theme.
  • Stuff to download (outside official repos):

Installation:

Install the prerequisites (refer to the previous section) and clone this repo.
Copy the content of the config folder to your ~/.config. You can overwrite SOME files if needed. Review the changes first.

Notes:

  • Copy the files while logged into a tty and not a DE for the changes to actually take effect.
  • You might want to skip copying some highly specific config files like Keyboard layouts and Monitor config.
