This project is a revitalization of the Suru icon set that was designed for Ubuntu Touch. The principles and styles created for Suru now serve as the basis for a new FreeDesktop icon theme.
- Pull requests regarding branded, third-party application icons (for example, Google Chrome) will be rejected. Infringing upon third-party brands is a no-no in this set.
- Development is focused on targeting the GNOME desktop, changes regarding other desktop environments (such as MATE or KDE) are not currently a priority.
- See the README in the icon sources folder for more about how to contribute or modify icons

You can install Suru from source using the Meson build system.
meson builddir --prefix=/usr
sudo ninja -C builddir install
By default it installs to /usr/
but you can specify a different directory with a prefix like: /usr/local
or $HOME/.local
.
After which you should be able to pick Suru as your icon theme or set it with:
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface icon-theme Suru
To uninstall Suru, simply run: sudo ninja -C builddir uninstall
or, if you installed it without superuser priveleges: ninja -C builddir uninstall
and you can reset your icon theme to the default:
gsettings reset org.gnome.desktop.interface icon-theme
You can donate to support the development of Suru or become a patron on Patreon. It goes without saying that your support is much appreciated. 😊
