Developer comments
I wanted to write this engine for a long time but I could never figure out how to write a gtk2 engine. With gtk3 the documentation got a bit better (I still had to figure out a lot myself) and I was finally able to start this engine.
The Solidity GTK3 engine is quite usable for now but in the future there will be a lot more options.
!!! Recompiling may crash your open GTK3 apps, so close them before recompiling !!!
To compile the engine you need make, valac, gcc and gtk3 (on Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install build-essential valac libgtk-3-dev).
Then open a terminal in the folder where the makefile is and compile with:
make
and install:
sudo make install
There is a test theme included in the download. To install it copy the directory called solidity to either /usr/share/themes or ~/.themes. Then you can select it for example in gnome-tweak-tool.
