    Discontinued Gradience is a tool for customizing Libadwaita applications and the adw-gtk3 theme. [Moved to: https://github.com/GradienceTeam/Gradience]

  • I think recoloring (color overrides defined by the user) is also important, which adwaita supports internally, but GNOME doesn't have this functionality exposed, you have to use AdwCustomizer. https://github.com/ArtyIF/AdwCustomizer

  • yaru

    All Ubuntu Yaru GNOME themes

  • As it was agreed upon that a recoloring API for vendor theming should be implemented ("We agreed on the need of a recoloring API for apps and vendors to take advantage of.") I wouldn't worry too much about one developer not thinking this is a good idea. Whenever there is talk about accent color support in libadwaita (for example with the ubuntu theme this is an issue https://github.com/ubuntu/yaru/issues/3348 ) GNOME people are saying "it's not ready yet" and "we want to work on it upstream" and not "we don't want this".
