How not to develop the United States! Ubuntu 16.04 LTS deep beautification!! (Constantly updated ~~~)

preface

• This article is an attempt to beautify and optimize Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. It is basically my experience in using ubuntu 16.04 LTS for a long time.
• A brief explanation of the reasons for choosing the latest version is that instead of choosing the latest version, we chose the latest long term support version, namely LTS. But in fact, if you use other Ubuntu versions, the overall processing is pretty much the same.

• Aesthetic beautification (Theme icon pointer font)

Flatabulous theme Here is a well-known flat theme

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:noobslab/themes
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install flatabulous-theme
Copy the code

Effect:

• Default theme:

• Black theme:

I prefer black theme, the default theme will sometimes blind my titanium dog eyes! (Manual funny)

---

Ultra-flat-icons & paper-icon-theme Most people will choose ultra-flat-icons to match the flatabulous theme. But I prefer paper-icon-theme

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:noobslab/icons
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ultra-flat-icons
Copy the code

Effect:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:snwh/pulp
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install paper-icon-theme
Copy the code

Effect:

For the macBuntu-os-ithemes-lts-v7 pointer, I chose the MAC OS pointer, which is very beautiful to use. And by the way, the MAC OS theme and ICONS are installed directly here

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:noobslab/macbuntu
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install macbuntu-os-icons-lts-v7
sudo apt-get install macbuntu-os-ithemes-lts-v7
Copy the code

See the GIF from the previous icon presentation, which is basically a Pointer to the MAC OS

Font font – WQY-Microhei is my favorite font, which supports Chinese well

sudo apt-get install fonts-wqy-microhei
Copy the code

Effect:

When unity-tweaking -tweak-tool is installed, many of you will have noticed that I must use unity-tweaking -tweak-tool

sudo apt-get install unity-tweak-tool
Copy the code

• Let’s just do thatTheme icon pointer fontApply them all
  
  Operation:
  
  In order to compress the GIF as much as possible, so sacrificing a bit of quality, I will include static renderings at the end to see how it actually looks.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

  Apply theme ICONS, etc

Gnome-tweaking -tool is used to set the Flatabulous engine to auto-boot, but it also has many other functions. The black theme of Flatabulous can be turned on here

sudo apt-get install gnome-tweak-tool
Copy the code

Effect:

Beautify the interface is not enough, at least beautify the terminal bar!!

• Terminal beautification

---

sudo apt-get install zsh
sudo apt-get install git
sudo wget https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/raw/master/tools/install.sh -O - | sh
chsh -s /bin/zsh
Copy the code

Then right-click the terminal and go to Profile – Profile Preferences – Color, as shown in the picture:

Check the transparent background, you can open the terminal high B, and then a picture of the effect:

• Utility gadget X2

The system load indicator can look at CPU, memory, and so on in real time, and it’s incredibly useful

sudo apt-get install -y indicator-multiload
Copy the code

Above:

In the status bar in the upper right corner, you can preview the CPU or memory load in real time

The classic menu indicator automatically categorizes all applications, which is not too cool

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:diesch/testing
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install classicmenu-indicator
Copy the code

Above:

• cairo-dock

What makes Apple an Apple is its top design, such as the Dock’s classic design. Then I recommend a dock that I am using. See the effect picture here

sudo apt-get install cairo-dock
Copy the code

Here’s a quick look:

configuration

• Unity – tweaking -tool, Cairo – Dock also needs to be mentioned for individual configurations
• Other everybody fumbles by himself to play

---

• Go to the unity- tweaking -tool, go to the hotbed and follow the Settings shown below, of course you can customize it
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

  Hotspot set

  
  Effect:
  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  Window tile

• In addition, window adsorption is also worth using, will own more fine

---

• Cairo – Dock has a lot of options, so right-click the dock to go to configuration, and then click advanced mode to see how many options you can add, as well as plugins

• I don’t want to say too much, and finally show you a pretty exaggerated effect so that you can feel it. Ok, about 30 seconds
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

  finishing

• In fact, there are plenty of places to play, so you can set them up as you like

The last

After beautification, it looks really comfortable, and it is really comfortable to develop software in this environment. After that, I plan to write an article about ubuntu 16.04 LTS software recommendation. If you are interested, please follow me!
