What is ArcFox?

ArcFox is a pack of firefox improvements that brings the appearance and some of the features of arc browser to firefox. Recently, The Browser Company © (the developers of arc browser) announced a windows version, so this project almost lost the reason to exist. But there still a linux version to be made and some people just like firefox and don't want to change.

NOTE: Arcfox is a side-project under development.

I really recomend you to give a try on arc browser if you can. But we gonna do our best to make firefox nice as arc.

Installation

To use ArcFox you need to install arcfox-core and arcfox-theme (in this specific order). To proceed with the instalation, use the tutorial below. Using arcfox-core and arcfox-theme together is the best way to use ArcFox!

ArcFox-core Installation

To install arcfox-theme you need to download it on your firefox, we recommend you to download from the official addon store. To do that please follow this steps:

• Download arcfox-core from this link
• It should start to work just fine :D

ArcFox-Theme Installation

To install arcfox-theme you need to open your firefox configurations and turn style modification on. To do that please follow this steps:

• Open "about:config" on firefox.
• On the search bar, search for "toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets" and set the value to "true".
• Open "about:support" and click on the “Open Folder” button on the right of "Profile Folder" to open it.
• When the folder opens, search for a folder called "chrome", if you don't find it create one.
• Inside the "chrome" folder, drop the "userChrome.css" that you find on the releases.
• Restart firefox.
