Jade Shell adds Omarchy-inspired themes and desktop features to GNOME, with an installer for Fedora 44 and Ubuntu 26.04.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-27 issue.
For
GNOME users on Fedora 44 or Ubuntu 26.04
Worth noticing
The page reports 0 dropped frames across 360 dock-magnification frames, while noting the tests used one machine and its own harness.

Field notes

The installer asks for a password once, takes a minute or two according to the page, and may offer to log the user out at the end. Jade Shell lists separate undo commands for the last theme switch, keymap changes, and restoring the desktop from before installation. The project identifies itself as independent of Omarchy, Basecamp, GNOME, and Apple, and lists GPL-3.0-or-later licensing.
