Flatabulous is a visual theme for Ubuntu and other Debian-based Linux systems that gives the desktop a flat, clean look. It was built specifically for the Unity desktop environment that Ubuntu used to ship by default, and it changes the appearance of windows, menus, buttons, and other interface elements to follow a flat design style rather than the more three-dimensional defaults. The theme is based on an earlier project called Ultra-Flat and was created by a single developer who later opened it up to contributors. Installing it requires a tweak tool, either Unity Tweak Tool or Ubuntu Tweak depending on your Ubuntu version, which lets you switch between themes without digging into system configuration files manually. You can install Flatabulous through a downloadable package file, through a community software repository (called a PPA), or by manually placing the theme files in a specific folder on your system. Alongside the theme itself, the readme recommends pairing it with a matching flat icon set called ultra-flat-icons, which is available in blue, orange, and mint green. Once both are applied through the tweak tool and the computer is restarted, the desktop takes on a consistent flat look across windows, the launcher, the file manager, and system settings. The project is released under the MIT license, which means you can use and modify it freely. The maintainer noted they were looking for additional contributors and maintainers at the time the readme was last updated, as their time with Ubuntu had become limited. The repository includes promotional poster files in PSD format for anyone who wants to help publicize the theme.
