Nordzy Icon Theme

Repository Archived

This repository is now archived due to a lack of time to maintain and update it.

If you're interested in taking over the project, I’m happy to offer limited assistance to help you get started. Please feel free to reach out!

Thank you for your interest and contributions. Best wishes!

Nordzy is a free and open source icon theme for Linux desktops using the Nord color palette from Arctic Ice Studio and based on WhiteSur Icon Theme and Numix Icon Theme
I’ll take requests for which app icons I should put in next. If I get no requests, I take (almost) randomly from the long list of apps. Dark variants are more appropriate for dark desktop environments, while the normal variants are more appropriate for light desktop environments.
If you are using a dark theme with a light panel (or the opposite) you can specify the panel argument which make the panel's color opposite.
