Elementary Tweaks Linux

Elementary Tweaks Tool is an application that is used to customize Elementary OS such as changing themes, icons, fonts, etc. In this article, I provide a guide on how to install Elementary OS Tweaks for versions 7, 6, and 5. Different from the Ubuntu variant in terms of appearance customization and several other systems, you can use a small application called Ubuntu Tweak.

Slightly different from elementary OS, even though it is a derivative of Ubuntu, it cannot use Ubuntu Tweak for customization. Therefore, specifically for Linux, Elementary OS has a special application for that, called Elementary Tweak.



Install Properties Common

Elementary OS by default does not use PPA, where we can install 3rd party applications. Therefore, to be able to use PPA, please open the terminal and install it using the command: 

sudo apt install software-properties-common

After the PPA is available on our Linux, then install Elementary Tweak using the method below.
