# Version ${{ github.ref_name }} Released!
[Showcase](https://github.com/max-ishere/grubshin-bootpact/blob/${{ github.sha }}/SHOWCASE.md)
## Installation
Here is the TLDR of the installation instructions ([Full instuctions](https://github.com/max-ishere/grubshin-bootpact/blob/${{ github.sha }}/INSTALLATION.md)):
- Download the release zip (`${{ steps.zip.outputs.artefact }}`). It contains all the variants of the theme.
- Unzip and copy the variant you like to `/boot/grub/themes/grubshin-bootpact`.
> [!IMPORTANT]
> Make sure that after the theme is copied `theme.txt` is in
> `/boot/grub/themes/grubshin-bootpact/theme.txt`. Otherwise GRUB will not be able to find it.
- Add this to `/etc/default/grub`:
```
GRUB_THEME="/boot/grub/themes/grubshin-bootpact/theme.txt"
```
If its your first time installing see the full instructions using the link above.
> [!TIP]
> You can install multiple variants of the theme but only 1 can be active. Select the variant by
> changing the `GRUB_THEME` variable in `/etc/default/grub`
