Description:
Nwg-look is a GTK settings editor, designed to work properly in wlroots-based Wayland environment. The look and feel is strongly influenced by LXAppearance, but nwg-look is intended to free the user from a few inconveniences: - It works natively on Wayland. You no longer need Xwayland, nor strange env variables for it to run. - It applies gsettings directly, with no need to use workarounds. You don't need to set gsettings in the sway config file. You don't need the "import-gsettings" script.
