La Capitaine is an icon pack — designed to integrate with most desktop environments. The set of icons takes inspiration from the latest iterations of macOS and Google's Material Design through the use of visually pleasing gradients, shadowing, and simple icon geometry.

Every image in this theme is a scalable vector graphic so it will look great at any size, on any screen. In my spare time, I work on adding new icons, updating old ones, and making this theme more complete. Since this theme is updated often, you should clone this git repository and pull regularly to make sure you're always up-to-date:

cd ~/.icons
git clone https://github.com/keeferrourke/la-capitaine-icon-theme.git

Alternatively, there are AUR PKGBUILDs available, so if you're on Arch Linux, simply run:

yay -S la-capitaine-icon-theme       # point releases
yay -S la-capitaine-icon-theme-git   # git master branch

Fedora and EPEL users can also use a third party Copr repository :

sudo dnf copr enable tcg/themes
sudo dnf install la-capitaine-icon-theme

La Capitaine comes with a configuration script which attempts to determine your distribution and desktop environment. Using this information, La Capitaine updates several system icons and icons used for mime-types.

For best integration with your distro/desktop environment, please run ./configure and follow the prompts.

La Capitaine doesn't ship with two distinct variants, because I wanted to keep the size of this project to a minimum.

You'll need to run the configuration script to tell La Capitaine to update its directory structure to use the dark variant.
