Install Adwaita shell theme in Ubuntu 18.10
I would like to install the default GNOME 3 shell theme (the one used in Fedora for example), but I can't seem to find it anywhere (it's not even on gnome-look).
Can someone tell me how I can achieve this? The only way I can think of is to use the gnome-session package, but that seems quite overkill frankly.
To clarify, I'm looking for the shell theme, not the GTK theme (I have the User Themes extension installed).

- Create a folder "myShellTheme" or any name as you wish in
/usr/share/themes/
Create subfolder in "myShellTheme" named "gnome-shell"
Copy the required theme file
sudo cp /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gnome-shell.css /usr/share/themes/myShellTheme/gnome-shell/
Close all the files, Open Gnome-Tweaks and Select "myShellTheme" under User Themes

You can load the vanilla GNOME shell theme (Adwaita) from your home directory. To do that follow the steps below.
- Create a directory, say
MyThemeeither in~/.themesor in~/.local/share/themes. (You may create~/.themesor~/.local/share/themesif they don't exist.) - Create another directory inside
MyThemecalledgnome-shell. - Create an empty text file in this
gnome-shelldirectory and name itgnome-shell.css.
Open this
gnome-shell.cssin a text editor and add the following line
@import url("/usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gnome-shell.css");
Then save the file.
Launch (GNOME) Tweaks, go to Appearance section, and click the drop-down box next to "Shell" theme. MyTheme should appear in the drop-down list (assuming you've the 'User Themes' extension installed and enabled). Select it.
(You may have to re-login or restart GNOME shell to see the effect)
