# Blurred fox
### A ~~blurred~~ transparent safari-like firefox CSS theme
| blurredfox |

## How to
### Quick install for the linux lads
1. Run
```bash
$ sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/manilarome/blurredfox/master/install.sh)"
```
2. After the confirmation message that the theme is successfully installed, open firefox. You'll notice that it is still not transparent. To fix this, **`Open Menu > Customize > Change the theme to Dark`**.
#### NOTE:
It is advisible to check the script first before running it.
### Manual Installation
1. Open the Firefox Menu located on the top-right corner with a humburger menu(three horizontal lines).
2. Select `Preferences`, then `Preferences` again.
3. Go to `Advanced`, find the `Config Editor` button then press it.
4. A dialog will warn you, but ignore it, ~~just do it~~ press the `I accept the risk!` button.
5. Search for **`toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets`**, **`layers.acceleration.force-enabled`**, **`gfx.webrender.all`**, and **`svg.context-properties.content.enabled`**. Make sure to **enable them all!**
6. Go to your Firefox profile located in `$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](https://github.com/tryone144/picom/tree/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](https://store.kde.org/p/1294604/).
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.
