Quick Install

There's an install/ folder in this repo with an install.sh script that automates part of the setup (installing Plank, adding it to autostart, and prepping the ~/.themes / ~/.icons folders).

To use it:

cd install
chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh

The script will tell you at the end which steps still need to be done manually through the GUI (removing/adding panels, picking themes and icons) — those live in Cinnamon's internal settngs (dconf) and aren't safe to automate reliably across versions.

How I Did This

Here is a very simple and short step-by-step guide to how I customized my Linux Mint Cinnamon:

1. Removed the bottom panel

Right-click on the bottom panel → Panel Settings → Applets tab → Remove the bottom panel.

2. Added a top panel

Right-click on the desktop → Add Panel → Select "Top" to place a panel at the top of the screen.

3. Installed Plank Dock

Plank is a dock for quick access to apps.

sudo apt update
sudo apt install plank

To start Plank automatically:

1. Open "Startup Applications"
2. Click "Add"
3. Name: Plank
4. Command: plank

4. Applied Themes and Icons

Go to System Settings → Themes. Choose your favorite themes for controls, window borders, and icons. I have the "Tela Circle Purple Dark" Icon Theme. Download new ones from Gnome-look.org and place them in ~/.themes (themes) or ~/.icons (icons).
