ShadowFox/README.md

![header](Screenshots/header.png)

ShadowFox was inspired by changes made in Firefox 57, which made it impossible for addons to customize both the user interface and "protected" web pages.

This project aims at creating a universal dark theme for Firefox while adhering to the modern design principles set by Mozilla.

## Preview

![preferences](Screenshots/preview.png)

ShadowFox styles the entire user interface, protected webpages (such as `about:` pages and addons.mozilla.org), and over 20 popular addons.

## Installation

* Download the updater script from the [releases](https://github.com/overdodactyl/ShadowFox/releases) page for your operating system.

* Place this script in your Firefox profile directory.

  * Visit `about:support` by entering this address in the url bar.

  * Scroll down to `Application Basics`.

  * In the `Profile Folder` section, click the button that says "Open Folder", "Show in Finder" or "Open Directory" (OS dependent).

    * On Windows and Linux, this should take you directly to your profile directory. On a Mac, this will take you to a list of Firefox profiles, with the one you want highlighted. In this case, double click that folder to open it.

* Run the script.

* Restart Firefox.

***IMPORTANT***: Changes to webextensions do not go into effect by default. For more information, see [here](https://github.com/overdodactyl/ShadowFox/wiki/Altering-webextensions).

## Updating

* Run the updater script.

## Customization

It's easy to customize ShadowFox, everything from the colors used to what elements and webpages are styled.  Depending on how much you want to customize ShadowFox, you may be better suited using a different installation process.  To learn more, see [here](https://github.com/overdodactyl/ShadowFox/wiki/Getting-Started).
