How to

Quick install for the linux lads

  1. Run
$ sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/manilarome/blurredfox/master/install.sh)"
  1. After the confirmation message that the theme is successfully installed, open firefox. You'll notice that it is still not transparent. To fix this, Open Menu > Customize > Change the theme to Dark.

NOTE:

It is advisible to check the script first before running it.

Manual Installation

  1. Open the Firefox Menu located on the top-right corner with a humburger menu(three horizontal lines).
  2. Select Preferences, then Preferences again.
  3. Go to Advanced, find the Config Editor button then press it.
  4. A dialog will warn you, but ignore it, just do it press the I accept the risk! button.
  5. Search for toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets, layers.acceleration.force-enabled, gfx.webrender.all, and svg.context-properties.content.enabled. Make sure to enable them all!
  6. Go to your Firefox profile located in $HOME/.mozilla/firefox/XXXXXXX.default-release/.
  7. Create a folder and name it chrome, then assuming that you already clone this repo, just copy the theme to chrome folder.
  8. Finally, change the Firefox theme from default to dark. This is important!

Note

If there's no blur effect

  1. The theme does not provide the blur effect! Make sure you have a compositor with blur support running! KDE Plasma, macOS, and Windows 10 have this by default, but you need to enable it! If you're using linux, use tryone144's feature/dual_kawase branch of picom. It includes the dual kawase shader.

If you're using Plasma and there's no blur effect,

  1. Enable the blur in your compositor. Go to System Settings > Desktop Effects > Enable Blur. Note that this will not enable the blur effect on all applications.

  2. Enable the blur effect on all applications by installing a KWin script called Force Blur.

  3. Go to System Settings > KWin Scripts > Enable Force Blur.

If you're using Windows or Mac and something's wrong

  1. Sadly, I only have archlinux, so a feedback is welcome if it works on your platform.
