Zen Mods

Collection of custom CSS mods for the Zen Browser.

Sideloading

What?
Script that you can use to install these mods into your browser.

Why?
My friends wanted to use my setup and the official mod page workflow is (understandably) slow.

How?
It edits zen-themes.json in your browser profile, making the browser think a new mod was downloaded.
It then creates symbolic links from this repo to chrome/zen-themes/ in your browser profile as if the browser downloaded the mod.

You can now see the newly installed mod inside the browsers Mods settings page.

Usage

  1. Create a backup of your current Zen profile directory
    (Look into the comments at the start of the script for instructions on how to find your Zen profile directory)
  2. Clone the repo and run ./zen_sideload.sh <zen_profile_directory>
  3. Choose what mods you want it to install
