### Theming
For a consistent Theme across GTK and QT applications you can also set the Adwaita theme (libadwaita) which also has a adwaita-qt version in the AUR. Fontsettings can be done with [fontconfig](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/fontconfig/).
A graphical Interface for this is [nwg-look](https://nwg-piotr.github.io/nwg-shell/nwg-look).
