About AdwSteamGtk
AdwSteamGtk is a GTK wrapper that installs and updates the Adwaita for Steam skin. It offers a graphical interface plus command-line actions for checking, installing and updating the skin, and it can apply one-time install options such as accent color, color theme, library sidebar behavior and window control style. On startup it checks for new skin releases and displays a notification; the skin then needs to be reinstalled to apply the update. Installation is listed via Flathub, with an unofficial Arch AUR build. Building from source requires components including GTK4, Libadwaita, Meson, PyGObject and Python 3.10 or later. The project is licensed GPL-3.0; pricing is not stated.
